Talking about the same, Abhimanyu shares, "There is a lot of action in Nikamma.  Sabbir sir, and I both were keen that I do all the action & stunts myself. We wanted all the action sequences to look authentic. We decided that I should learn Capoeira before starting the shoot. We traveled to Turkey especially to learn this fighting form and it was an amazing experience. I trained with the armed forces there which were extremely engaging because it wasn't just fancy film fighting, but moreover real-life protection and takedowns."

Nikamma is jointly produced by Sony Pictures International Productions and Sabbir Khan Films and is scheduled to release on 5th June 2020.
