Sikandar Kher on Collaborating with Sriram Raghavan


Speaking about his involvement in the film, Sikandar shared, "I have always looked forward to a Sriram Raghavan film. He has his own language of filmmaking. His unique perspective on storytelling and the gripping way his narratives unfold have always fascinated me. As an actor, I’ve always wanted to be a part of his cinematic universe."

A Tribute to the Indian Armed Forces


In Ikkis, Sikandar will portray a dedicated army officer, bringing to life the resilience, discipline, and heroism of the Indian armed forces. The actor has already begun rigorous preparation for the role, immersing himself in the character to ensure authenticity and depth.

Backed by a Visionary Production Team


Sikandar also praised the film’s producer, Dinesh Vijan, highlighting his commitment to unique and impactful storytelling. “And then we have a visionary producer like Dinesh Vijan. The kind of films he has backed and the unwavering support he provides is just amazing. Both he and Poonam Vijan (Maddock Films) make a terrific team,” he added.

The Joy of Acting and Immersive Learning


Reflecting on his career, Sikandar shared his thoughts on what excites him most about being an actor. “The cool thing about being an actor is getting a chance to do things you normally wouldn’t get to do. You see and learn so many things that you wouldn’t otherwise experience. That’s exactly what’s happening with Ikkis.”

He also expressed his deep admiration for the armed forces and the real-life heroes portrayed in the film. “The background of the armed forces, the war, and especially the heroes we are playing is not just an honor but a privilege. I’m lucky to be a part of this film, and I hope I do well.”

A Stellar Star Cast and an Inspiring Story


Besides Sikandar Kher, Ikkis boasts a stellar cast, including veteran actor Dharmendra, who was last seen in Teri Baaton Mein Aisa Uljha Jiya, alongside Shahid Kapoor and Kriti Sanon.

The upcoming war biographical drama also stars Agastya Nanda and Jaideep Ahlawat. The film tells the story of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal's heroic sacrifice during the 1971 Indo-Pak War, bringing an inspiring and emotional narrative to the big screen.

With a powerhouse team of actors and creators, Ikkis promises to be a gripping and heartfelt tribute to the bravery of the Indian armed forces. Stay tuned for more updates as the film progresses toward its release.
