Akshay Kumar is currently busy with his upcoming movie, Sky Force.
Now, as per the latest buzz, Veer Pahariya is set to enter Bollywood soon with this film.
If this Pinkvilla report is to be believed, Veer will make his Bollywood debut in Akshay‘s Sky Force – a period film set in the 1960s and ’70s against the backdrop of Indian Air Force.
For the unversed, Veer Pahariya is the son of renowned businessman Sanjay Pahariya.
Directed by Sandeep Kewlani and Abhishek Kapur, Sky Force is said to be a mentor protégé tale with Akshay being a senior officer, while Veer will be seen as his disciple.
“Veer Pahariya has always aspired to be an actor and has also been training to be one. He waited it out through the pandemic and multiple scripts for getting the right opportunity. The script of Sky Force warrants the presence of a fresh face and everything has come together for the launch of Veer Pahariya to the world of show biz. Dinesh Vijan and Jio Studios along with Akshay Kumar are working together to give Veer an ideal launch to the Hindi Film Industry.”

The aerial action-thriller is produced by Dinesh Vijan’s Maddock Films and Jio Studios.
“It’s a film set in the 1960s and 1970s, and hence, every shoot schedule will require the team to take time off for recreating the era gone by. Akshay, Dinesh and the director duo want to create sets and rework on the real locations, rather than going for the VFX to recreate the yester era.”

For the unversed, Veer Pahariya has also been known as Sara Ali Khan‘s ex. Reportedly, the duo ended their relationship before her Bollywood debut.
On Karan Johar‘s infamous chat show Koffee With Karan S7, Sara appeared with Janhvi Kapoor and KJo spilled some beans about their dating life. It was revealed that Sara dated Veer, while Janhvi was in a relationship with his sibling Shikhar Pahariya.
