Sky Force Approaches Major Milestone at the Box Office

Sky Force, featuring Akshay Kumar, is making significant waves at the box office as it nears an impressive milestone of 150 crores globally. Released on Republic Day 2025, the film has been performing well domestically, yet its overseas numbers have fallen short of expectations. Despite facing competition from other releases like Shahid Kapoor’s Deva, Sky Force shows no signs of slowing down.

On its eighth day, Sky Force added 4.60 crores in domestic earnings, bringing the total to 104.30 crores. This marks a notable achievement, as it becomes Akshay Kumar’s third film to enter the 100 crore club post-pandemic, alongside OMG 2 and Sooryavanshi. After 13 releases during this period, this milestone illustrates the film's success amid a competitive landscape.

Despite its domestic success, Sky Force has confronted challenges in the overseas market, where it has struggled to break the 0.50 crore daily barrier. After eight days, its overseas gross stands at 9 crores, highlighting a disparity between its domestic and international performance. Producers hope for stronger engagement overseas to boost the film’s overall revenue.

Globally, Sky Force has reached a total earnings figure of 132.07 crores. The domestic net is 104.30 crores, while the gross in India is slightly higher at 123.07 crores. When combined with its overseas earnings, the numbers showcase a solid performance overall. Notably, Sky Force has already surpassed the lifetime gross of PadMan, which recorded earnings of 128.09 crores in its entire run.

In comparison, the Malayalam film Premalu stands as the second most profitable film of 2024, raking in a staggering worldwide gross of 136.2 crores. With Sky Force only 4 crores shy of this record, there is anticipation around whether it will manage to overtake Premalu in the coming days.

As the film's journey continues, it remains crucial to monitor its daily collections and reactions from both audiences and critics, especially in light of strong competitors like Deva, which is drawing viewers away. Fans and followers of Bollywood are keen to see how the dynamics at the box office evolve in the coming weeks.

As Sky Force pushes against its target figures, it reflects not only the star power of its lead but also the shifting currents of Indian cinema, where audience preferences are rapidly evolving, and competition is fierce. The next few days will be critical in determining if it can achieve its goal and set a new benchmark within the industry.
