Megastar Amitabh Bachchan's grandson, Agastya Nanda's upcoming film, "Ekkis," is ready for release. It's a war drama directed by Sriram Raghavan. Veteran actor Dharmendra is also a part of the film. On Monday, the makers released a new poster for the film, featuring Dharmendra. He will play Agastya Nanda's father in "Ekkis."

A glimpse of the new poster for "Ekkis" was shared on Maddock Films' official Instagram handle. Dharmendra is seen in it. The caption reads, "Fathers raise sons. Legends shape nations. Dharmendraji is a powerhouse of emotions as the father of a 21-year-old immortal soldier. One legend tells us the story of another." Dharmendra's powerful look in the poster is being widely appreciated.

Dharmendra's comeback after a long time
This marks a comeback for Dharmendra after a long time, as he has been away from the big screen for some time. Following his recent health-related break, fans are eager to see him back on the big screen. In the war drama "21," he will play the father of India's youngest Param Vir Chakra recipient, Second Lieutenant Arun Khetarpal. Dharmendra was last seen in "Teri Baatein Mein Aisa Ulza Jiya" (2024) and "Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani" (2023).
