Mission Mangal, which released on Independence Day, also features Vidya Balan, Taapsee Pannu, Sonakshi Sinha, Kirti Kulhari and Nithya Menen in lead roles. The film is based on the Mars Orbiter Mission, which the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) successfully launched in the year 2013.
Akshay Kumar plays the role of the Mission Director in the film while Vidya Balan plays the Project Director. Akshay and Vidya are assigned a team of junior scientists, played by Sonakshi, Taapsee, Nithya and Sharman Joshi.
In his review for NDTV, film critic Saibal Chatterjee gave the film 3 stars out of 5 and wrote: "The girls are infinitely more interesting and more believable than the character played by Akshay because they face a gamut of challenges and setbacks and yet keep their chins up. Each one of them, at different junctures of the film, is on the verge of quitting. But they hang in there for one shot at glory."
Mission Mangal has been directed by Jagan Shakti.
