With Republic Day coming up, everyone’s curious if it can rake in the big bucks like some past films have.
Sky Force stars Akshay, Nimrat Kaur, Veer Pahadia, and Sara Ali Khan, and it’s based on a true story about Squadron Leader T Vijay, played by Veer. There’s a lot of excitement around this one, and it’s got a good shot at a strong opening, especially since it’s releasing right before a holiday weekend.
Speaking of big releases around Republic Day, let’s take a look at some films that have done really well in the past:
- Pathan: Shahrukh Khan made a huge comeback with Pathan on January 25, 2023, after a four-year break. The film, featuring John Abraham and Deepika Padukone, smashed records and grossed over 1000 crores!
