Sunny Deol marked a deeply personal moment on social media after attending a special screening of Ikkis, the much-anticipated war drama inspired by the life of Param Vir Chakra awardee Arun Khetarpal. Sharing a poignant note on Instagram, the actor described the film as a heartfelt tribute to his father, legendary actor Dharmendra, whose legacy looms large over the project.
Alongside the post, Sunny shared a striking poster from the film featuring Dharmendra, accompanied by words that reflected both pride and emotion. His note read, “Our Papa, the man of the soil, Ikkis is his salute – his gift to the earth he loved and to the fans who always stood by him. For our family, it is a treasure filled with his spirit, courage, and his heart. Today, with love and immense pride, we share it with the world, hoping it lives on the way he does – forever.”

Directed by Sriram Raghavan, Ikkis tells the story of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal, the youngest recipient of India’s highest military honour. The role is played by debutant Agastya Nanda, whose performance has already drawn praise following early screenings. The emotional weight of the film has also been echoed by industry veterans. At earlier screenings, several attendees were seen getting teary-eyed, reinforcing the film’s impact beyond its technical craft. For the Deol family, however, Ikkis carries an added layer of meaning.
