The movie featuring Akshay Kumar in the lead role will be a remake of the 2014’s hit Tamil movie Kaththi which had starred Vijay and Samantha Akkineni as the lead pair. Akshay Kumar will be playing a double role in the movie. The original movie was directed by AR Murugadoss, who previously directed Akshay Kumar starer Holiday: A Soldier Is Never Off Duty. The movie has been titled Ikka.

If reports are to be believed then after the success of the original movie, in 2015 or 2016 Akshay Kumar had also said in public interactions that he was yet to take a call on doing the movie.

The original movie, Kaththi was based on the social issue of farmer-suicides driven by corporate encroachment.

Talking about the remake, the director Jagan Shakti revealed that the remake was put on the backseat after he decided to do Mission Mars. “But now Ikka will go on the floors very soon,” he said.

“It will resonate with the underprivileged section of the society. With my second directorial, I want to explore action which is presented in a sleek way,” he added.
