Suhana Khan, Ananya Panday & Navya Nanda Show Up In Support Of Agastya Nanda As Ikkis Motion Poster Debut!
We finally have our first look at Ikkis, the war biopic starring Agastya Nanda — which has been one of the most anticipated films — and it’s already creating quite the buzz on social media.
Directed by National Award-winner Sriram Raghavan and produced by Maddock Films, Ikkis is based on the real-life valour of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetrapal, who was awarded a Param Vir Chakra for his service to the nation at the tender age of 21.
A Cinematic Tribute To A War Hero
The motion poster appeared late Saturday, featuring dark, haunting images of tanks rushing into battle, conveying a patriotic tale and emotional autobiographical drama. Agastya Nanda plays the eponymous character in what is likely to be the most important film in the early stages of his professional life.
Immediately following the teaser’s release, friends and family quickly jumped in to show their support for the young actor.
Suhana Khan Leads The Cheer Squad
Suhana Khan, who has been, at least, rumoured to be dating Agastya, was one of the first to repost the Ikkis motion poster to her Instagram story — with some angel and heart emojis to make a subtle yet sweet show of support for her alleged boyfriend’s theatrical first appearance.
Ananya Panday also reposted with the adorable caption:
“Aggy <3” in encouragement.
Navya Naveli Nanda, Agastya’s sister, chimed in on the action, writing:
“21 years old. One destiny. A nation behind him. Jai Hind 🇮🇳
In cinemas worldwide 2nd October, 2025.
#Ikkis – The True Story of a Brave Soldier & Son.”
Meet The Team Behind Ikkis
Ikkis, the latest film from Badlapur‘s filmmaker Sriram Raghavan, sees Raghavan return to intense character-driven storytelling.
Agastya Nanda, the lead, stars alongside legends Dharmendra and Jaideep Ahlawat in what looks like all the hallmarks of a strong war drama: bravery, loss, patriotism and youthful idealism.
This appearance also marks Agastya’s first performance in theatres after The Archies on Netflix, positioning him as the new Gen-Z torchbearer of the Bachchan legacy.
October 2 Clash Alert: Ikkis vs Kantara: Chapter 1
In an interesting face-off, Ikkis will box office clash with the highly anticipated Kantara: Chapter 1 from Rishab Shetty, making October 2, 2025 — a mega Thursday for Indian cinema.

Ikkis is not just a movie — it’s a heroic tale, a personal leap for Agastya Nanda and a film tribute to one of India’s youngest war heroes.
Ikkis is supported by genuine goodwill power from Bollywood Gen-Z stars and is directed by a master storyteller — this war film is marching its way into our hearts — and theatres — this Gandhi Jayanti.
