Proving that courage, conviction and content can truly be a blockbuster beginning, Ikkis has opened 2026 on an extraordinary high. The war drama has collected an impressive ₹22.05 crore in its opening weekend!
Directed by master storyteller Sriram Raghavan, Ikkis stands tall as a testament to bold storytelling, driven by vision rather than spectacle alone. With this opening, Raghavan once again delivers a film that blends strong storytelling with solid box office performance.
What makes the achievement even more remarkable is the film’s ensemble – late Dharmendra Ji – his screen presence adds immense emotional weight to the film, reminding viewers why he remains one of Indian cinema’s most cherished icons, newcomers Agastya Nanda and Simar Bhatia deliver a stirring and nuanced performance, and Jaideep Ahlawat, who adds gravitas and emotional depth to the narrative.
With word-of-mouth growing stronger by the day and audiences continuing to shower love on its story and performances, Ikkis is firmly positioned as a powerful cinematic statement that proves courage, when told right, can indeed be a blockbuster.
Ikkis is now playing in cinemas nationwide.
