About Sky Force
Sky Force is based on India’s attack on Pakistan’s Sargodha airbase during the Indo-Pakistani air war of 1965. Jio Studios also produced the movie with Maddock Films. Akshay plays Wing Commander Kumar Om Ahuja in the film, based on Om Prakash Taneja VRC and Veer plays T Krishna Vijaya aka Tabby, based on Ajjamada Boppayya Devayya MVC.
Talking about meeting the late Devayya’s family, Veer told ANI, “I was lucky to meet the family on whom this film is based. Mrs Devayya, who is 90 years old, and her daughters watched the film. They told me I did justice to the character and that the hard work paid off. For me, there’s no bigger reward than knowing they felt proud and happy after watching the movie.”
