Akshay Kumar, one of Bollywood’s most celebrated actors, has been struggling to deliver a hit in recent years. However, his latest release, Sky Force, marks a significant moment in his career. Released on Republic Day weekend, the film also serves as the debut vehicle for Veer Pahariya and features Sara Ali Khan in a pivotal role.
Sky Force is inspired by real events from the 1965 India-Pakistan war, focusing on the story of a squadron leader who went missing during the conflict. The gripping narrative and stellar performances have struck a chord with audiences.

Day 1 Box Office Collection
As per early estimates by Sacnilk, Sky Force collected Rs. 11.25 crore on its opening day. These numbers are expected to change slightly when official data is released. The film’s promising start is a welcome change for Akshay Kumar, whose recent films struggled at the box office.
A Much-Needed Break For Akshay Kumar
Akshay Kumar’s last few films, including the high-budget Bade Miyan Chote Miyan (Rs. 16.07 crore opening) and flops like Khel Khel Mein (Rs. 5.23 crore opening) and Sirfira (Rs. 2.50 crore opening), failed to make an impact. After a string of disappointments, Sky Force’s strong opening gives hope for a turnaround.
