Akshay Kumar’s Sky Force: Poised to Cross ₹100 Crore Net Box Office Milestone
Akshay Kumar’s latest action-packed thriller, Sky Force, has been making waves at the Indian box office since its release on January 24, 2025. As of Friday, January 31, the film has amassed approximately ₹89 crore in India net collections, positioning it to surpass the coveted ₹100 crore mark over the upcoming weekend.
Reportedly, the film was made with a production budget of ₹160 crore, and the trends suggest that it may face difficulties in crossing ₹150 crore at the India net box office. If that happens, the producer’s share from the Indian box office could range between ₹55-60 crore. The recoupment of the invested amount will likely depend heavily on the sale of digital and satellite rights, which are expected to be a crucial revenue stream to help cover the production costs.
Box Office Performance
In its opening week, Sky Force demonstrated a strong performance, with collections as follows:
- Day 1 (Friday): ₹12.25 crore
- Day 2 (Saturday): ₹22 crore
- Day 3 (Sunday): ₹28 crore
- Day 4 (Monday): ₹7 crore
- Day 5 (Tuesday): ₹5.75 crore
- Day 6 (Wednesday): ₹6 crore
- Day 7 (Thursday): ₹5.5 crore
- Day 8 (Friday): ₹3 crore
These figures bring the total India net collection to approximately ₹89 crore till Friday.
Worldwide Collections
On the global front, Sky Force has garnered a total of ₹ 111.5 crore (gross), with ₹8.6 crore(gross) attributed to overseas markets. (sacnilk.com)

Conclusion
Sky Force has not only captivated audiences with its gripping narrative and stellar performances but also demonstrated strong box office potential.
