The song titled Maaye from Akshay Kumar’s Sky Force is released today. Needless to say, the song encapsulates the spirit of the film – the passion to risk lives for the motherland vs the familial bond which holds the Air Force officers back.
The song brings back the familiar images from the war front – wounded bodies of officers, a heap of corpses, an officer who doesn’t want to die on the lap of his colleague. The song also features glimpses of a pregnant Sara Ali Khan, Nimrat Kaur.
The song has been sung by B Praak. Tanishk Bagchi composed the music and lyrics are written by Manoj Muntashir. Take a look at the video here:
Ahead of the song release, Manoj Muntashir threatened the makers to give him due credit for the song. He wrote on his X post, “Please note Jiostudios, MaddockFilms, saregamaglobal, This song is not just sung and composed but also written by someone who has given all his blood and sweat to it. Removing writers name from the opening credits shows utter disrespect for the craft and fraternity by the makers.”
He continued, “If it’s not corrected immediately, including the main song releasing tomorrow, I am going to disown the song and make sure my voice is heard by the law of the land. Shame.”
Sky Force tells the story of India’s first airstrike. It highlights the courage and patriotism of the men in uniform who participated in the mission. The movie has been jointly bankrolled by Dinesh Vijan, Jyoti Deshpande, and Amar Kaushik.
The film will hit the screens on January 24, 2025 on the occasion of Republic Day.
