Agastya Nanda's big screen debut film Ikkis dropped its first song, Sitaare on December 3. The song set a beautiful and emotional vibe to this power-packed military drama. Heart of the music industry, Arijit Singh sang this soulful song and Amitabh Bhattacharya gave lyrics to the song. The two music maestros created magic together, which beautifully captured the innocence of young love. During the release of the song, the entire cast was seen getting emotional as they remembered the late actor Dharmendra, who also plays a pivotal role in the film.

Agastya Nanda got emotional while remembering his co-star Dharmendra from the movie and said, "You know for me it's very emotional because Dharam ji worked with all generations of my family. He worked with my great-grandfather, grandfather and I had the privilege to share screen space with him. As sir said, it's an honour, a huge privilege and I am extremely sad that he couldn't see the love he deserves."
