India is celebrating its 75th Independence Day today. On this occasion, the makers of the upcoming web show, Rocket Boys, shared the teaser. Starring Ishwak Singh as Vikram Sarabhai, the Father of the Indian Space Programme and Jim Sarbh as Homi Bhabha, the father of India's nuclear power, the Sony LIV show will release soon.
The teaser of Rocket Boys starts with Jawaharlal Nehru’s iconic speech ‘Tryst With Destiny’. As the speech echoes in the background, Homi Bhabha tells Vikram Sarabhai, "Isn’t it wonderful, that your child will be born in a free India?" In response to this, Sarabhai says that not just his child but the future generations will also be welcomed into an independent India. Promising to tell a story of patriotism and chronicling India's scientific progress, Rocket Boys seems to be an interesting show to watch out for.
Created by Nikkhil Advani, Roy Kapur Films and Emmay Entertainment and produced by Siddharth Roy Kapur, Monisha Advani, Madhu Bhojwani and Nikkhil Advani, Rocket Boys is directed by Abhay Pannu.
Rocket Boys is set between 1938 to 1964 and is said to be dealing with India's space program and its atomic energy program, spread headed by Sarabhai and Bhabha respectively.
