The trailer of Akshay Kumar’s Mission Mangal released this week and it has all the ingredients of a patriotic, feel-good film. Apart from Akshay, the film has an ensemble cast including Vidya Balan, Taapsee Pannu, Sharman Joshi and Sonakshi Sinha. The movie is loosely based on the story of scientists at Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) who contributed to the Mars Orbiter Mission. The mission marked India’s first interplanetary expedition.

Sharing her excitement on being a part of the multi-starrer, Vidya Balan said that she is glad that Bollywood is making movies that celebrate India’s achievements: “I think we Indians do not wear our pride on our sleeves (enough) for our country. I am so glad that over the last few years, so many films are being made that make us Indians aware of our achievements. I think it is the first time in my career that I heard the narration and said yes within no time. The script was so good and, of course, Akshay was already on board. I just felt this story needed to be told.”
