Sky Force Day 1 Box Office Triumph: Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahariya’s Riveting Aerial Actioner Takes Off
The wait is finally over, as much-awaited Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahariya’s Sky Force is out in cinemas today, 24th January, and its box office journey has begun on a decent opening. Set against the historic background of India’s first airstrike in the 1965 Indo-Pak war, this aerial action drama brings before the audience an inspiring tale of courage, strategy, and patriotism. Directed by Sandeep Kewlani and Abhishek Anil Kapur, Sky Force also stars Sara Ali Khan and Nimrat Kaur in pivotal roles. —–
Plot and Premise
Sky Force is a film on a rather unknown but highly relevant incident in Indian history, the Indian Air Force’s retaliatory strike on Pakistan’s Sargodha airbase during the 1965 Indo-Pak war. Akshay Kumar is seen playing Wing Commander K.O. Ahuja while Veer Pahariya debuts as T.K. Vijaya. The film goes about the lives of these heroes in an action-emotion-engaging story.
Day 1 Box Office Collection
The Akshay Kumar starrer did pretty well on the opening day due to smart promotions and affordable ticket offers. All major booking platforms slashed ticket prices to as low as ₹20–₹50, which helped a lot in footfalls at the theatres. The promotional trick along with Akshay Kumar’s stardom and the patriotic theme of the film helped the movie start off on a promising note.
While awaiting Day 1 collection, the advance evening show and morning shows at various places went relatively moderate to good. Words of mouth had been good enough, and since the Republic day weekend is a couple of hours away, all the numbers could only go on an upward rise over the week-ending.
Box Office Issues
Although promising, Sky Force meets tough competition. It breaks with the re-release of Ramayana: The Legend of Prince Rama and the Hindi-dubbed Daaku Maharaaj version of the Telugu film. Finally, recent box office failures such as Azaad and Emergency might not raise the spirits in the audience to take a bold choice for going to the movies.
But, since Republic Day falls on a Friday, this may be the best omen for Sky Force to tap patriotic feelings. It may bring higher footfalls across the nation.
A Reprisal for Akshay Kumar?
It would be the turnaround that Akshay Kumar sorely needs, after a spate of dull releases. He has already featured in a few of his films with good results; cameos in Singham Again, which did a semi-hit, and in Stree 2, all-time blockbuster. His other movies like Khel Khel Mein, Sarfira, and Bade Miyan Chote Miyan did not get much to speak of.
With Veer Pahariya making his entry as an actor and Sara Ali Khan adding her brand of charm, Sky Force is going to be a fine ride that promises entertainment for fans of Akshay Kumar. Sara and Akshay had collaborated in Atrangi Re, and their chemistry adds an emotional depth to the narrative.
Produced by Maddock Films and Jio Studios, Sky Force is the product of two creative minds, one in the shape of directorial expertise with Sandeep Kewlani and the other with Abhishek Anil Kapur. The entertainment factor is surely to be served well with good production values, aerial combat scenes, and an interesting plot.
Sky Force has flown open its wings with a fair opening to take off. It all depends upon the coming days, how it manages to get a good rapport among the people. In the coming days, when the weekend is of the Republic Day and having much patriotic background, the movie stands a strong chance to have a better run in the box office.
Sky Force is a high-octane movie that presents such aerial actions along with inspired war dramas for a thrilling war time. Enjoy and plan viewing on this coming weekend? Your comment awaits.
