Dharmendra's Emotional Farewell: A Tribute to Legacy in Ikkis
Dharmendra's enduring legacy lives on as his son, Bobby Deol, shares a heartfelt video of the late actor on the set of the upcoming movie, Ikkis. Directed by Sriram Raghavan, the film is set to release on New Year's Day. In the video posted on Bobby Deol's Instagram stories, Dharmendra can be seen expressing his gratitude towards the producers, director, and the entire team of Ikkis, praising the film's execution and expressing his emotions on the last day of shooting.

Bobby Deol's touching note accompanying the video conveys his deep love and longing for his father, highlighting the emotional bond between them.
In Ikkis, Dharmendra portrays the role of M.L. Khetarpal, the father of Agastya Nanda's character Arun Khetarpal, in a narrative centered around the 1971 Indo-Pak war. The film delves into the sacrifices made by soldiers and their families, with Dharmendra's character embodying the grief and pride of a father who lost his son in battle.
The trailer of Ikkis showcases Dharmendra's powerful performance as he grapples with the loss of his son and seeks answers about the circumstances of his sacrifice. The film pays homage to the bravery of Second Lieutenant Arun Khetrapal, a recipient of the Paramvir Chakra, who made the ultimate sacrifice for his country at a young age.
Produced by Maddock Films, Ikkis is a tribute to the heroic legacy of Arun Khetrapal and the countless soldiers who have laid down their lives for India. The film's release on January 1 promises to be a poignant and heartfelt portrayal of courage, sacrifice, and the enduring spirit of patriotism.
