Hyderabad: Bollywood actor Akshay Kumar is back at the box office and is here to pack a punch this time. With his latest release, Sky Force, the actor has managed to pull audiences to the theatres, making his long-due hit venture.

Sky Force was released in theatres on January 24, two days before Republic Day. It opened to decent reviews minting Rs 12.25 cr in the domestic circuit. On its day 2 at the theatres, Sky Force made Rs 22 cr, witnessing a 79.59 percent increase in footfall, propelled by positive word-of-mouth reviews and Akshay's star power.
The film banked on the Republic Day holiday, registering a 27.27 percent growth in ticket sales, amounting to Rs 28 cr. However, the double-digit ride was short-lived and with Monday's Litmus test, the film dropped down to Rs 7 cr, marking a steep 75 pc decline in collections from the previous day.

Sky Force is an aerial action entertainer loosely based on India's retaliatory strike on Pakistan's Sargodha airbase during the 1965 Indo-Pakistani air war. Akshay Kumar plays an Indian Airforce Officer, joined by debutant Veer Pahariya as Squadron Leader Ajjamada Boppayya Devayya, a Mahavir Chakra recipient. The film also stars Nimrat Kaur and Sara Ali Khan in key roles.

With its gripping storyline and stellar star cast, Sky Force has been able to stay strong at the theatres, overshadowing Kangana Ranaut's Emergency and debutants Rasha Thadani and Aaman Devgn's Azaad. However, the film faces stiff competition from Shahid Kapoor and Pooja Hegde's Deva slated for release on January 31.
