Synopsis

Ikkis tells its war story in a quiet and thoughtful way. Brigadier Madan Lal Khetarpal travels to Lahore, Pakistan, for two important reasons. One, to meet his old friends from school and college, because before partition, he dwelt in Sargodha, Pakistan, and some places never stop feeling familiar. Two, and more importantly, to understand why his 21-year-old son, 2nd Lt. Arun Khetarpal, refused the order to abandon his tank and save himself during the 1971 Indo-Pak war. In a painful twist, Brigadier M. L Khetarpal is hosted by Brigadier Jaan Mohammad Nisaar, the Pakistani commander whose actions in the war led to Arun’s martyrdom. Over three days in Lahore, the film quietly explores grief, guilt, and unanswered questions, while also showing Arun’s brave tank battle on the battlefield.
