Akshay Kumar’s war drama kicks off 2025 with an impressive opening at the box office, fueled by strong word-of-mouth and a Republic Day weekend boost.
Impressive Opening Weekend for Sky Force
Sky Force has recorded an outstanding first weekend at the box office, setting a positive tone for 2025. The film, which saw discounted ticket rates on Friday, witnessed significant growth on Saturday and Sunday, thanks to the Republic Day holiday and exceptional word-of-mouth.
Box Office Performance Breakdown
The film’s collections saw a steady rise over the weekend, with multiplexes in urban centres leading the charge, while mass circuits picked up pace gradually. Here’s a breakdown of Sky Force’s first weekend earnings:
- Friday: ₹15.30 crore (with discounted ticket prices)
- Saturday: ₹26.30 crore (significant growth)
- Sunday: ₹31.60 crore (boosted by holiday impact)

The Road Ahead for Sky Force
A strong start is crucial, but sustaining momentum through the weekdays will be the key to Sky Force’s long-term success. The film must hold steady from Monday to Thursday to cement its position as a true box office winner.
With the positive buzz and patriotic fervour driving audiences to theatres, Sky Force is well on its way to becoming one of Akshay Kumar’s notable hits.
