Ikka trailer: Sunny Deol returns as fierce lawyer, strikes shocking deal with Akshaye Khanna

While sharing the new promo on YouTube, Netflix wrote, “A twisted case. A powerful enemy. You’ll see Ikka in action soon.”

Speaking about Ikka, Sunny Deol said in a statement, “Ikka is not just a courtroom drama. It is a story about family, relationships, and the difficult choices life forces you to make. Arjun is a man who believes in doing what is right, but circumstances push him to question everything around him. His pain, his anger, his silence, and his fight for what he believes in are what drew me to this character. This film is also very special because it marks my first direct-to-streaming release.”

Earlier, in an interview with Outlook, director Siddharth P Malhotra opened up about casting Sunny Deol and Akshaye Khanna in Ikka. “I am a huge fan of Sunny Deol and haven’t seen him after Damini (1993) as a lawyer. When Netflix greenlit the project and Sunny Sir asked who I envisioned as Shauryaman Gaur, I said, ‘Sir, I only see Akshaye Khanna.’ That time, of course, Dhurandhar had not come. None of this happened. Everyone was skeptical, wondering if Akshaye would agree. However, I knew the script and the character were incredibly compelling, so we decided to go ahead and narrate it to him. Akshaye read the script and gave his nod within just two hours,” he shared.
