The highly anticipated film Sarfira, featuring Akshay Kumar and Radhikka Madan, is set to make its streaming debut soon. Directed by Sudha Kongara, this film dives into the exciting world of India’s startup scene and its growing aviation industry.
Announcement of the OTT Release
On Thursday, Akshay Kumar took to X (formerly Twitter) to share the big news about when and where fans can watch Sarfira. The movie initially hit theaters on July 12, and now viewers will be able to enjoy it from the comfort of their homes.
In a short video announcement, Akshay conveyed the essence of the film. He expressed, “Aasmaan ke sapne dekhne ke liye zameen par kisiki permission nahi lagti,” which translates to “To dream of the sky, one doesn’t need permission on the ground.” He emphasized that the story revolves around an ordinary person whose dream was to make air travel accessible to everyone.
The Story Behind Sarfira
Akshay continued to share the spirit of the film, saying, “Duniya ne rokne ki bohut koshish ki… par woh nahi ruka.” This means that while the world tried to hold him back and called him Sarfira (meaning “crazy” or “wild”), he persisted. Akshay portrayed Sarfira as someone who defies the norms set by society, showing that determination can help one achieve their dreams, no matter the obstacles.
Release Date and Streaming Information
Fans of Akshay Kumar can look forward to watching Sarfira on Disney+ Hotstar starting October 11. Akshay encouraged everyone to tune in, stating, “Aesi hi ek Sarfira ki true story aapke dil ko chuhne aarahi hai.” This translates to “A true story of such a Sarfira is coming to touch your hearts.”
In his social media post, he included the caption: “Apne sapnon ko poora karne ke liye, #Sarfira hona padta hai,” which means “To fulfill dreams, one must be Sarfira.”
