Rocketry: The Nambi Effect starring R. Madhavan released in cinemas on July 1. Did the Janta like the film though? Let's find out.
Rocketry: The Nambi Effect is a biopic based on the life of space scientist, Dr. Nambi Narayanan. The film marks the directorial debut of R. Madhavan who also plays the lead in the film. We see Simran playing the role of Meena Nambi, his wife in the film, while Ravi Raghavendra, Muralidharan, ShyamRenganathan, Sam Mohan, and Rajit Kapur also play pivotal characters in the movie. The film is also being highly praised for the cameos of two superstars of our industry aka Suriya and Shahrukh Khan, who play themselves in the story. It follows the journey of Rocket Scientist, Nambi Narayanan and focuses on three major parts of his life. The story is told in a non-chronological manner through an interview with Suriya.
The first half shows his days at Princeton University in the US and how he became the first scientist to study at an Ivy League university. Nambi Narayanan wanted India to become the best at making rockets. The second half follows the custodial tortures he had to face after being wrongfully accused of espionage and the turmoil his family went through, emotionally and physically. Even though a lot of scientific jargon that was used in the film was confusing to follow, his struggles and his fight to clear his name made it an intriguing watch for many.
There will be very few takers for a film that is a biopic in its truest sense. This #RMadhavan film is information dense but such an important story to be told to the masses.
Technically flawed on a few aspects but extremely well researched!
#RocketryTheNambiEffect is the kind of movie that needs to be made and goes a long way in the art of low-key movie making. My only regret is that I don’t understand Tamil. What a story.

#RocketryTheNambiEffect Absolutely spellbinding genius brought to the fore! A being who should be revered & respected for his sheer brilliance in the space science and resilience in pursuing justice for all the unspeakable cruelty done to him! Nambi Sir - My humble pranam! 🙇🏻♀️🙏🏼🙏🏼
Just walked out of the theatre and gosh what a movie, Thank you @ActorMadhavan for #RocketryTheNambiEffect. If not for you, we wouldn't have known about the genius patriot that Sri @NambiNOfficial is & the brutal ordeal he had to go through. Blockbuster! Must watch. 10/10.
The eagerness when they announce @iamsrk's name. The overwhelming joy in seeing him do a peekaboo from behind the makeup artist. Feeling the same emotions he did on listening to Nambi. And tearing up and breaking down in awe by the end of it. #ShahRukhKhan#RocketryTheNambiEffectpic.twitter.com/3aKJX3ZiQa
