What the cast said about Ikka
Deol called Ikka "not just a courtroom drama" but "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," Deol said on his character.
Khanna who couldn't join the trailer launch in person, sent a special voice message where he said, "Kuch mulaqatein stage par nahi ho sakti. Agar ho gayi, to zalzalaa aa sakta hai! Isiliye Ikka aur main ab sirf Netflix ki screen par milenge, 10 July ko. Taiyaar rehna."
Produced by Alchemy Films, Ikka will start streaming from July 10. Althea Kaushal and Mayank Tewari have served as the writers of the courtroom thriller.
