Sky Force has not only garnered critical acclaim but also made a spectacular debut at the box office, raking in a whopping 15.30 crores on its opening day! The action-packed drama, which hit theaters on 24th January 2025, right around Republic Day, has quickly taken flight with audiences and critics alike, making it one of the most anticipated films of the year.
Set against the backdrop of India’s first airstrike—the Sargodha airbase attack of Pakistan during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1965, Sky Force follows the high-stakes mission and the heroes who made history. With Akshay Kumar leading the charge alongside fresh face Veer Pahariya, the film promises a rollercoaster of emotions, bravery, and breathtaking action. Add to that stellar performances from Sara Ali Khan and Nimrat Kaur, and you’ve got yourself an edge-of-your-seat thriller that’s giving fans exactly what they want.
Directed by Abhishek Anil Kapur and Sandeep Kewlani, Sky Force was brought to life under the banner of Maddock Films and Jio Studios, with producers Dinesh Vijan, Amar Kaushik, and Jyoti Deshpande at the helm. The film’s explosive opening makes it clear that it has captured the hearts of viewers—and the box office!
As Sky Force continues to soar, it’s safe to say that this Republic Day weekend will go down in history—not just for the airstrikes but for the movie that nailed it at the box office.
