The trailer of Sunny Deol and Akshaye Khanna’s upcoming courtroom drama, Ikka, was unveiled by the makers on Monday (June 29, 2026). Directed by Siddharth P. Malhotra, the film also stars Tillotama Shome and Dia Mirza in pivotal roles.

Trailer Overview

The trailer introduces Sunny Deol as Arjun Mehra, a celebrated lawyer known for his ideal principles. However, a high-profile murder case forces him to defend Shauryamann Gaur (Akshaye Khanna), a complex personality with darker shades. The two are a complete mismatch.

• Tillotama Shome plays a public prosecutor, pitted against Arjun in her pursuit of justice for the murder victim.
• Dia Mirza plays Arjun’s wife, Avantika, with whom he shares vulnerable discussions about the case.

The film promises to be a dramatic courtroom drama with powerful dialogues.

Cast Statements

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.”

Dia Mirza added:

“Avantika is someone who brings warmth, strength, and stability to those around her, even when life becomes increasingly uncertain. I was drawn to her resilience and the quiet courage with which she navigates the challenges that come her way.”

Release Details

• The film marks Sunny Deol’s first direct-to-streaming release.
• Produced by Alchemy Films.
• Ikka will be released on Netflix on July 10.
