Ikkis is a powerful biopic on Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal, India’s youngest Param Vir Chakra awardee, who laid down his life at the age of 21 during the 1971 Indo-Pak War. Directed by thriller maestro Sriram Raghavan and produced by Dinesh Vijan, the film stars debutant Agastya Nanda in his most challenging role yet, portraying Khetarpal’s courage and youthful determination. Legendary actor Dharmendra appears as his father, while Jaideep Ahlawat, Simar Bhatia, Deepak Dobriyal, Vivaan Shah, Sikandar Kher, and Rahul Dev add depth to the ensemble cast.
The newly released poster heightens the atmosphere of wartime intensity, featuring tanks, troops, and a rugged battleground palette. The gritty visuals resonate with early trailer responses praising the film for its emotional authenticity, restrained storytelling, and high-production military sequences. The poster further reinforces Ikkis as a grounded, respectful tribute to real-life heroism.
With its Christmas 2025 release date, Ikkis positions itself as a poignant and patriotic offering amid Maddock Films’ otherwise lighthearted horror-comedy lineup. The film promises an inspiring cinematic experience that celebrates valor, loyalty, and the indomitable spirit of one of India’s most iconic war heroes.
