Releasing posthumously, Ikkis doesn’t just mark Agastya Nanda’s debut on the big screen; it is also Dharmendra’s final film. Following his death a mere month ago on November 24, 2025, a special screening was held for the premiere of the movie.
There were many celebrities, including Sunny Deol, Bobby Deol, Rekha, and Salman Khan, who attended the event to not only celebrate this big moment for Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson and Akshay Kumar’s niece, but also honour the passing of the He-Man of Bollywood.

Rekha Kissed Agastya Nanda’s Photo on the Red Carpet
During the special screening of Sriram Raghavan’s Ikkis, Rekha flaunted down the red carpet and found herself gushing over the massive photos of Dharmendra, who plays K. L. Khetarpal in the film, and Agastya Nanda, who plays Arun Khetarpal. While it may be a sweet gesture, what struck fans as odd was how she kissed the latter’s photo.
She honoured Dharmendra by joining her hands in front of his photo and fondly giving a flying kiss. For Nanda’s photo, she caressed it and kissed it in an almost personal manner.
This is mental sickness. People need to stop glorifying it.
Reverse the roles and see the outrage.😬

She did not get and that makes her obsessive. Had she got him then story would have been something else.😇

This wouldn’t necessarily be a problem had Nanda not been Amitabh Bachchan’s grandson. Her controversies and affair rumours with the Coolie actor are already endless and unsurprisingly, fans see her gesture as an allusion to that.
