Sunny Deol is all set to return to the courtroom with Ikka. The upcoming legal drama will also reunite him with Akshaye Khanna on screen after their 1997 film Border. Recently, the cast and makers launched the trailer of the film, where the actors shared several anecdotes about Ikka and reflected on their careers.
Speaking about his love for courtroom dramas, he said, “Definitely, mujhe Damini ke baad mauka nahi mila aur jaise hi ye subject mere paas aaya main khush tha ki hum itna koshish kar rahe thhe Damini 2 karne ka, but Damini 2 ka toh kuch hua nahi (I had not got the chance to do a courtroom drama after Damini, and we really wanted to make Damini 2, but that did not pan out).”
Sunny also opened up about reuniting with Akshaye Khanna after Border. He said, “Lekin ye film mere paas ayi aur isme Akshaye Khanna hain… jinke saath maine Border ki thi (Then Ikka happened where I am working with Akshaye, with whom I had worked in Border before). It was the first film where we worked together. Bohot maza aaya tha aur iss film mein bhi bohot maza aya (We had enjoyed working together in that film, and had just as much fun on this one). I have known him for so many years, and wo mujhse jyaada aloof hai (he is more aloof than I am).”
Released in 1993, Damini remains one of Sunny Deol’s most celebrated performances. His powerful portrayal of advocate Govind Srivastava, particularly the iconic “Tarikh pe tarikh” courtroom monologue, has become a landmark moment in Hindi cinema. While a sequel never came to fruition, Ikka marks Sunny’s return to the courtroom after more than three decades.
