Sky Force Movie Budget
Media reports claim that Sky Force was produced on a meagre Rs 160 crore budget.
The Indo-Pakistani War of 1965 was a significant turning point in the history of aerial conflict between the two nations. The first significant aerial battle between the Indian and Pakistani Air Forces took place in September 1965, with thousands of offensive and defensive missions across Indian and Pakistani airspace.
In the 1965 India-Pakistan War, Squadron Leader Ajjamada Boppayya Devayya, also known as 'Wings of Fire,' was a hero. An enemy plane struck his aircraft while he was on a risky strike operation against the Pakistani airbase Sargodha. Even though he was outnumbered, Devayya expertly shot down the opposing pursuer's plane, but he was lost because his aircraft was severely damaged.
