Akshay Kumar's 'Sky Force' Nears ₹100 Crore Milestone Despite Monday Slump

The aerial action film, based on India's 1965 airstrike, saw strong weekend earnings but faces challenges sustaining momentum during weekdays.

Sky Force, starring Akshay Kumar and debutant Veer Pahariya, has earned ₹72.51 crore domestically and ₹89.50 crore globally by Day 5.
The film opened strongly with a ₹61.75 crore weekend, boosted by Republic Day celebrations and discounted tickets.
Monday collections saw a steep drop of over 75%, with earnings at ₹6.25 crore, raising concerns about long-term performance.
Produced on a ₹160 crore budget, the film needs significant weekday and second-weekend earnings to break even theatrically.
Upcoming competition from Shahid Kapoor's Deva may impact Sky Force's screen count and audience attention in its second week.
