The film showcased the extraordinary achievements of the scientists behind India's Mars mission, and Akshay Kumar's portrayal added a touch of relatability to the unsung heroes of space exploration.

'Mission Raniganj' (Upcoming)


With 'Mission Raniganj' on the horizon, Akshay Kumar is all set to bring another unsung hero to life. He will embody the character of Jaswant Gill, who saved 65 lives from a perilous coal mine.
