A week ahead of Mission Mangal hit the screen, the second trailer of Akshay Kumar starrer just dropped in which shows ‘why it is important to take failures in our stride in order to move closer to achieve success’.
Akshay Kumar, who plays mission director Rakesh Dhawan in the film, takes centre stage in the trailer as he goes from being hopeless to realising India’s Mars Orbiter Mission is very much possible.
“Pure ISRO ko pata hai ki ye hone wala nahi hai (The entire ISRO knows that it’s not getting to happen),” Rakesh (Akshay) says in the trailer. Later he goes on to convince his team how ISRO stands for Impossible Space Research Organisation because there can be a dream beyond reality.
The trailer also features scientist Tara Shinde played by Vidya Balan who comes up with the idea of using the parts of their stalled Chandrayaan 2 project in the Mars Mission in order to utilise their materials and keep the budget under control.
The cast of the film includes Sonakshi Sinha, Taapsee Pannu, Kirti Kulhari, Nithya Menen and Sharman Joshi. The movie is stalled to release on August 15th, 2019.
