Ikkis Screening: Sunny Deol Gets Tearful

Ikkis sees the debut of Simar Bhatia, Akshay Kumar's niece, and Agastya Nanda, Jaya and Amitabh Bachchan's grandson.

After playing Archie in the OTT original film, The Archies, Agastya plays the late Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal in the war film.

Ikkis has been directed by Sriram Raghavan.

Raghavan spoke about his association with Dharmendra, telling ANI, 'I met him in October. That time he was okay, but he was not too well. He watched the first half and waited for the second half. I wanted him to see the film in its entirety. Somehow, that couldn't happen. He is not here to enjoy the work he had done, and people appreciate that. That is a regret we have.'

The director revealed Dharmendra used to write dialogues in Urdu before the shoot.

'He's old school. He would write his dialogues in Urdu. He would also write the core actor's dialogues, and was extremely well-prepared,' he added.
