Agastya Nanda, scion of the illustrious Bachchan family, is set to embark on a cinematic journey with his upcoming big-screen debut in Sriram Raghavan's Ekkis.
"Ekkis, a biopic on 1971 war hero Arun Khetarpal, showcases Agastya's acting talent and explores the intimate father-son bond against the India-Pakistan war backdrop."
Having recently marked his acting debut in the Netflix film The Archies, Agastya Nanda swiftly transitions to a more profound role in Ekkis.
The Archies, a teen musical comedy, served as a precursor to Agastya's potential, providing a glimpse into his ability to navigate diverse characters.
Agastya Nanda's selection as the leading man in Ekkis is a testament to his potential and the trust bestowed upon him by the seasoned filmmaker Sriram Raghavan.
The film is not merely a war saga but also a poignant exploration of the bond between a father and son during tumultuous times.
Agastya has actively engaged in acting workshops, honing his body language and understanding the nuances required to embody Arun Khetarpal authentically.
While the film captures the heroics of Arun Khetarpal on the battlefield, it equally focuses on the emotional dynamics between a father and his son.
The year 2023 has proven to be a pivotal one for Agastya Nanda. Not only did he make his acting debut with The Archies, showcasing his versatility in a musical comedy.
As the film gears up for production, Agastya Nanda is set to begin shooting for Ekkis in January 2024.
