I’ve recently found myself captivated by the gripping tale of “Sky Force,” one of Akshay Kumar’s latest Bollywood productions.

Alongside Akshay, Parineeti Chopra also features in this film, and it’s available for streaming on Netflix.

3. Kesari

Before diving into Kesari Chapter 2, make sure to catch Kesari (2019), an inspiring film by Akshay Kumar now available on OTT platforms. Unlike a prequel, this movie is set in another significant historical event. It portrays the Battle of Saragarhi and the valiant sacrifice of Sikh soldiers on the battlefield.

2017’s movie titled “Jolly LLB 2” is a mix of humor and drama set in a courtroom, featuring Akshay Kumar portraying the character of Jagdishwar Jolly Mishra, commonly known as Jolly. The plot revolves around Jolly battling against a dominant lawyer and an unscrupulous police officer. This film can be found on JioHotstar for streaming. The next installment, “Jolly LLB 3,” is scheduled to hit the big screen in 2025.

5. Airlift

2016’s Airlift found me absolutely hooked, with Akshay Kumar breathtakingly embodying Ranjit Katyal – a brave businessman in Kuwait. Facing unimaginable danger, he tirelessly worked to rescue fellow Indians during the Iraqi invasion. Nimrat Kaur was captivating as his resilient wife. Ready to rewatch this gripping tale anytime? It’s streaming on JioHotstar and Amazon Prime Video!
