Agastya Nanda will soon be seen in Ikkis with Dharmendra and Jaideep Ahlawat. The official announcement was made at a special event hosted by Amazon Prime Video on Tuesday, March 20. However, what has caught everyone’s attention is the support Agastya received from his The Archies co-star Suhana Khan, especially as the duo sparked dating rumours after the film’s release.
Ikkis was officially announced yesterday and Agastya Nanda took to his Instagram handle to share the title card of the film. While many friends and fans of the actor flocked to the comments sections to express their appreciation for the actor, Suhana commented, “Let’s GO” with fire emojis.

Talking about Ikkis earlier, Sriram Raghavan revealed, “Initially, it had Varun Dhawan, and then after the pandemic, we had a chat about how he won’t suit (the part). Opening up about the movie that is based on the life of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal PVC, he said, “It is a bigger production; there will be tank battles and all those things that happen in a war film. But it is also a human story; it’s a drama, a coming-of-age kind of a thing.”
Sriram Raghavan also clarified that Ikkis will not present a fictionalised rendition of Arun Khetarpal’s life story. He emphasised that the film would steer clear of a simplistic or overly heroic narrative akin to children’s comics. Moreover, the focus will not dwell on Khetarpal’s childhood. Instead, Ikkis will centre on the young officer who made the ultimate sacrifice shortly after reaching the age of 21. The narrative delves into the poignant transition from youth to adulthood, with an intriguing event unfolding 30 years later.
Ikkis is a war drama and will be produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films. It boasts an impressive cast including Agastya Nanda and the legendary Dharmendra. The film promises to be a grand production that delves into the coming-of-age story of Arun Khetarpal, the youngest recipient of the Param Vir Chakra.
