Update on Akshay Kumar’s film Sky Force: First look will be revealed with Stree-2; Veer Pahadia trained for a year for the film
This year, many films of Ajay Devgan and Akshay Kumar are going to be released. Akshay’s films Khel Khel Mein, Sarfira and Sky Force are in this list. Sources close to Akshay told Dainik Bhaskar, ‘The first look of Sky Force will come with Stree-2, which will be released on Independence Day. This is because both Stree-2 and Sky Force are films under Dinesh Vijan’s banner. The story of Sky Force is based on the background of the war between India and Pakistan in 1965. Dinesh Vijan has been revealing the first looks of his films at the time of release of other films under his banner. Like he revealed the first look of Stree-2 in the recent release ‘Munjya’. Veer will be seen opposite Sara Ali Khan. Sources reveal more special information related to Sky Force. They say, ‘Along with Akshay in this film, newcomer Veer Pahadia and Sara Ali Khan are also there. Sara was earlier opposite Akshay in Atrangi Re. However, here in this film, Veer Pahadia is opposite her. Nimrat Kaur is opposite Akshay Kumar. He had worked with Nimrat in Airlift a few years ago. Anyway, Veer Pahadia is making his acting debut here. For this, he has also taken training for one year. Veer has assisted director Amar Kaushik in the film Bhediya Sources say in detail, ‘Before stepping into acting, Veer had assisted director Amar Kaushik in his film Bhediya. Then he learned the nuances of acting with an acting coach for a year. He also visited the Air Force bases of the country. He went there and took gurumantra from the Air Force officers as well. This is because Veer Pahadia is basically playing the role of an Air Force pilot in the film. Akshay Kumar has also become an Air Force pilot in it.’ Special attention has been given to art direction and cinematography. The DOP of this film is Samantha Krishnan Ravichandran. Samantha had earlier done cinematography for films like Kabir Singh, Animal, Baghi 3 and Happy New Year. Art direction is going to be very important in the film, this is because it is a period film. The film travels in the 60s and 70s. In such a situation, the services of Anita Mandlik have been taken to create the world of that time. She has been the art director of films like Bajirao Mastani and Raees. Shivank Kapoor has been hired for costumes. Shivank had earlier worked on Hansal Mehta’s film Faraz. Shashi Kapoor’s grandson Jahan Kapoor was launched with that film.
