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’s character Wing Commander Kumar Om Ahuja is based on Om Prakash Taneja VRC, and Veer’s role T Krishna Vijaya aka Tabby is based on Ajjamada Boppayya Devayya MVC.

Hindustan Times’ review of Sky Force reads, “It’s just that most of these films want to appeal to the patriots inside all of us- and they don’t quit until they succeed. ‘Hindustan’ ‘Bhartiya’ everything is thrown at you… but no one benefits from a war, and there’s no changing that truth. Sky Force is a refreshing watch in that aspect, as putting that point across is its only aim.”
