Thu Jan 23 13:58:16 UTC 2025: ## Akshay Kumar’s ‘Sky Force’ Soars with Strong Advance Bookings

**Mumbai, India** – Akshay Kumar’s highly anticipated film, “Sky Force,” is set to release on January 24th. The film, based on a true story of the 1965 Indo-Pak war, marks the debut of Veer Pahariya alongside the Bollywood veteran. Advance booking figures reveal a strong start for the film, with 81,225 tickets already sold, generating ₹3.17 crore (approximately $380,000 USD) in revenue. This suggests a promising opening day collection of ₹8-10 crore (approximately $960,000 – $1.2 million USD), potentially boosted by the Republic Day holiday weekend.

The film’s trailer and songs have already generated significant buzz, particularly given Akshay Kumar’s recent string of box office underperformers. “Sky Force,” a story about Indian Air Force pilots, also stars Sara Ali Khan and Nimrat Kaur, and is directed by Sandeep Kewlani and Abhishek Anil Kapoor.

Akshay Kumar himself expressed his excitement on social media, highlighting the unique experience of portraying an air force officer in a film based on a true story. The film’s success will be closely watched, especially in comparison to the strong performance of “Fighter” last Republic Day. The strong advance bookings suggest that “Sky Force” has the potential to break Akshay Kumar’s recent box office slump.
