The song sets the emotional foundation of the album with its message of hope and aspiration, emerging as one of the most celebrated tracks of the film. Following this is ‘Ban Ke Dikha Ikkis’, a stirring composition rooted in courage and conviction. The track echoes the spirit of determination and resilience that defines the core of Ikkis. The album then shifts into a more introspective space with ‘Tera Aashiq’, a poetic Qawaali layered with longing and devotion. The song reflects the inner conflicts and unspoken bonds of the characters, offering a reflective pause in the album’s journey.

Adding tenderness to the soundtrack is ‘Sajda’, a track that celebrates love in its purest, most vulnerable form, capturing moments of quiet surrender and emotional faith. Closing the album with Biradar Yamma a poignant composition that lingers warmth and longing, leaving listeners with a lasting emotional imprint.

Penned by Amitabh Bhattacharya and Irshad Kamil the album is brought alive through distinct and immersive compositions of White Noise Collectives, who create sounds that balance scale with intimacy.

Every track has been specially thought to feel organic, emotional and immersive. The response to the songs so far has been incredibly encouraging, and it reassures us that the music has connected the way we hoped it would.”

Sharing his thoughts on the album, Agastya Nanda said, “Seeing the love each song has received has been truly overwhelming. Music played a huge role in helping me understand my character and its emotional journey. Listening to the complete album now feels like revisiting those moments on set which were honest, emotional and very close to my heart.”

Simar Bhatia added, “The love the songs have received has been incredibly special. Each track feels deeply emotional and purposeful. The music doesn’t just support the film, it becomes a part of the characters, and that’s what makes this album so close to my heart.”

With a musical range that blends energy, romance and introspection, the Ikkis music album stands as a complete musical narrative that complements the film’s emotional arc. As the war-drama gears up for its theatrical release, the album sets the stage for a cinematic experience rooted in emotion, legacy, and human connection.
