The action-packed drama, Sky Force, starring Akshay Kumar, has been a major attraction at the box office. Directed by Abhishek Anil Kapur and Sandeep Kewlani, the film is inspired by real events. It introduces Veer Pahariya in his first role, with Sara Ali Khan and Nimrat Kaur playing key parts. Sharad Kelkar appears as a Pakistani officer. Released just before Republic Day 2025, it has become a significant cinematic event this year.

Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahariya portray Indian Air Force officers for the first time. The collaboration between Veer Pahariya and Sara Ali Khan has also drawn attention for their on-screen chemistry.

Globally, Sky Force's box office collection amounted to Rs 96.75 crores by the end of its first Tuesday (day 5), as reported by Sacnilk.

Discussing Sky Force with HT City, Akshay Kumar shared insights about his character: "Everyone declared him (Sqd. Ldr. A.B. Devaiah) a traitor and 23 saal tak kisi ko nahi pata tha that actually he was a hero. The character I play, Wing Commander K.O. Ahuja, based on Group Captain O.P Taneja, is senior to the character Veer plays in the film - T. Vijaya, based on Sqd. Ldr. Devaiah. Aap log vishwas karenge ki 23 saal baad inke parivar ko sarkaar ne maha vir chakra diya? The whole film is not only about war, it is also about what happens to the family and the children left behind".

The movie's portrayal of historical events and personal stories has resonated with audiences worldwide. Its success reflects both its engaging narrative and strong performances by the cast.
