Rocketry: The Nambi Effect



False acquisitions and labels so easy to be made,  destroying not just the person but the whole family. It's sad that  the real perpetrators roam around freely. This is what Madhavan has brought out in not just another bio-pic but something that all should be aware of and need to know. The message also is - Don't give up the fight for right.  Come what may. A must watch movie.

The whole movie has messages at various stages, whether it is doing whatever is needed to chase your goals, patriotism, in the beginning, the fight for right, and misunderstandings, but the best as always is saved to the end, when actual Nambi Sir takes over, and the climax scene where the interviewer Sharuk/Surya  apologises to Nambi Narayanan it just feels soo raw & realistic. This is not just a movie. This is not definitely entertainment. It is an apology from the heart of the people of India to a great son of India, a visionary technologist and a patriot - Nambi Narayanan, for the crimes against him committed by a few heartless men using the state machinery of India. A film on ISRO scientist Nambi Narayan who was arrested in an alleged espionage case in 1994 for selling vital secrets to Pakistan and being involved in Sex Scandel with Mariam Rashida. 

It's not easy being both the lead actor and the director but Madhavan achieves the desired trajectory on both fronts. 

Coming to the film the script is well written stitched with perfect timeline of events, detailing on technical & scientific aspects and a well balance storyline of personal as well as professional life of scientist Nambi Narayanan. This film is a journey in itself , you feel intense emotions, patriotism, you feel proud of Indian scientists at the same time you feel sad at what a scientist of a caliber like Nambi had to go through from being called a traitor for always keeping nation  & his duty towards nation first , there are scenes that break you down as audience , its hard to imagine the feelings of Scientist Nambi in real life . R Madhavan has lived the character and has done justice to the role , the young avatar to the present avatar of scientist Nambi all has been aced to the best . Overall  this is a film that should not be missed , its a must watch for all of us Indians . This film is not a commecial entertainer so do not expect masala and over exaggeration ,this film is plain , simple & to the point which is sure to make you feel emotional, its a niche film showcasing India's scientific capability and how it was tried to be sabotaged. 

May nobody go throw what Nami Sir, had to. May the real perpetrators come to light.
