January 28: Akshay Kumar and Veer Pahariya’s much-talked-about film ‘Sky Force’ has been making waves at the box office since its release on January 24. The patriotic drama opened to strong numbers over the weekend but witnessed a significant dip in collections on its first Monday.

Impressive Opening Weekend Performance

The debut film of Veer Pahariya, grandson of former Maharashtra Chief Minister Sushil Kumar Shinde, has garnered attention for its engaging storyline and stellar performances. Despite Veer coming from a political family, his Bollywood debut is being widely appreciated.

Box Office Collections (India):

Day 1 (Friday): ₹15.30 crore
Day 2 (Saturday): ₹26.30 crore (significant growth)
Day 3 (Sunday): ₹31.60 crore (holiday boost)

Total (First Weekend): ₹86.40 crore in India, ₹92.90 crore globally.

The film’s weekend performance was boosted by the Republic Day holiday on Sunday, drawing large audiences to cinemas.

Day Four Dip: Monday Collections

After a stellar weekend, ‘Sky Force’ experienced the usual Monday slowdown.

Day 4 (Monday): ₹6.25 crore

This brings the total domestic collection to approximately ₹99 crore, just shy of crossing the coveted ₹100 crore milestone.

Budget and Break-Even Point

With a production budget of ₹160 crore, ‘Sky Force’ has already recovered more than half its cost within four days. If the film maintains steady numbers throughout the week, it is likely to recover its production budget and turn profitable by the second weekend.

Veer Pahariya’s Promising Debut

The film marks a strong debut for Veer Pahariya, whose performance has been well-received by audiences. Coming from a political lineage, Veer is the son of Smriti and Sanjay Pahariya and brother to Shikhar Pahariya, who is often in the news for his relationship with actress Janhvi Kapoor. Despite his background, Veer has carved a niche for himself with his cinematic debut.

Outlook for the Week

With a solid weekend start and positive word-of-mouth, ‘Sky Force’ is expected to maintain steady collections throughout its first week. The film’s patriotic theme, coupled with Akshay Kumar’s fanbase, has resonated with audiences.

As ‘Sky Force’ inches closer to the ₹100 crore mark, it is poised to become another box office success in 2025, with the potential for long-term performance if weekday trends stabilize.
