Sky Force box office Day 7: Akshay Kumar, Veer Pahariya’s film nears Rs 90 crore
Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahariya’s Sky Force recorded its lowest earnings on Day 7. Directed by Abhishek Anil Kapur, the film is steadily inching towards the coveted Rs 100-crore club.
According to early trade reports, Sky Force saw a significant drop in its collections on Thursday, earning Rs 5.50 crore. With this, the film’s total box office earnings now stand at Rs 86.50 crore, as reported by Sacnilk.com.
Sky Force is Veer’s big Bollywood debut. The actor features as Squadron Leader Ajjamada B Devaiah, who is the only Indian Air Force officer to be posthumously given a Maha Vir Chakra, the second-highest military award in India.
India Today’s review of the film reads, “Sky Force is a satisfactory film. A paisa vasool entertainer, which has done its homework right. It might not give you an otherworldly experience like other big-budgeted war movies we have seen in the past. It is not your extravagant Mission Impossible or your vehemently zealous Border, but it has enough to keep you engaged.”
The film also features Sara Ali Khan and Nimrat Kaur in important roles. While it tries to keep the story more about the valour and contribution of Devaiah to the Indian Air Force and to the world of aviation, it also shows India’s winning stand against Pakistan during the war.
