I was surprised that people weren’t really happy with this show but were singing praises of a mediocre Mission Mangal. This is one of the most beautiful web series, it makes me so emotional. It shows scientists as humans with emotions, flaws, greed, ambition etc without adding melodrama, unnecessary masala and cheesy loud patriotic dialogue baazi. Refreshingly we are getting to see stories of Indian scientists who were stalwarts in their fields. And Last but not the least, finally Jim Sarbh is getting such good roles. Nothing wrong with playing villains, they are also characters with depth and substance, however he deserves to play main leads. He is such a natural actor, one doesn’t feel that he’s doing overacting.
Just watched it yesterday and it was really good.... And was surprised by the same
The audience for mission mangal were the mass general audience who are impressed by anything above average.
The audience for this show (based on marketing alone ) are the mostly upper class, educated, jaded, cynical, snobbish people who love to nitpick stuff. And that makes all the difference.
That's what makes good pictures unnoticed because we ourselves are hesitant to promote it. But massy movies get worse and worse but the audience are happy to celebrate it.
Mission mangal was too cringe
@@113uineo but for the standard Salman Khan / Akshay Kumar / Ajay Devgan audience, this was above average.
@@maverickcreations589 let me correct you, not the upper class. Not all educated can like. And by the way u didn't get the real agenda of the web series. UPPER CLASS HIGHLY EDUCATED rubbish. There is high probability that u can never connect with it cause you are not from physics community. I think its a masterpiece and atleast involved some of the major contribution of both without mixing the unnecessary convincing for uninterested audience. Btw ur upper class word is quite hypocritic. Celebrate the science. And focus on words you choose to write.🙂😊😇
We need more Jim Sarbh 👏👏
The man's highly talented and extremely underrated, even though he's been in many things....
Dude is supremely talented!!
He's in Gangubai now
Also extremely handsome 😍
Man he's just oozing suave in this god damn.
Must say this is Jim Sarbh's arrival as an actor and the cementing of an eternal iconic status in the entertainment industry. His career best. Relegating his performance in Neerja to the second spot.
His performance in Neerja was his very best! So much so that people ignored Sonam, who was the main lead.
Anthony Hopkin's dialogue in Thor was embodied and personified by Homi Bhabha, Vikram Sarabhai and APJ Abdul Kalam saab. "A good king must never start a war but should always be prepared for one." 👏👏👏
The entry of APJ Abdul Kalam sahab in the show was a theater worthy moment.
I am planning to pursue research in Physics, and just the trailer of Rocket Boys brought tears to my eyes. Not to mention Dr. Kalam's entry got me as excited as a little kid who is watching a superhero movie and there's a cameo by another superhero. Seeing my idols on-screen portrayed in such a nuanced and human way is simply praiseworthy.
Kalam sir's entry felt like an Avengers level tease. Absolutely chilling 🔥
Bro i feel you, I'm also doing bachelors in physics, i just wish atleast i can bring the first Nobel in physics after independence
@@rajneesh8960 Wishing you all the very best !!!
All the best. I always wanted to continue Physics. But ended up in Computer Science. Once I dreamt of doing my masters from BARC 🙂
@@rajneesh8960 all the very best 🤗🤗
SonyLIV is definitely the most consistent OTT platform in India!!!
Shame that they don't promote their shows that much.
Not to mention, their app is worst among all streaming platforms
@@buddhadey167 yes, the only thing that disconnects me with Sony LIV is their ugly user interface
Sony tv n sony liv shows are always underrated n low on trp
@@buddhadey167 true lol
@@avivinodia1725 hahaha
When I saw the trailer of Rocket Boys, the last scene of the trailer gave me goosebumps when Abdul Kalam Sahab said "SALAM".❤
The entry in the series and his involvement is even better!
@@TriedRefusedProductions I'll definitely watch it.
The last clip of the trailer when he called "APJ abdul kalam" gave me chills.
He is great in the series as well!
@@TriedRefusedProductions I really hope so , i love that man soo much.
@@TriedRefusedProductions Jammy brother, can you please do a tribute video to Lata Mangeshkar?? Listing her work, achievements all throughout.... I just got teary eyed after the news of her death and wanted to see something in honour of her...
I was working in Europe but throughout my tenure I felt alienated in foreign land eventually I decided to come back and work in India , this series made me very emotional , we have everything in our country and these days even money , let’s hope next generation of bright minds stay here and take our nation to next level . Brilliant series should be watched and celebrated by every Indian
Best part about the storyline is they tried to connect the puzzle the best way possible it starts with a rivalry between Homi Bhabha and Vikram Sarabhai including the characters like CV Raman, JRD Tata and APJ Abdul Kalam. Even though it looks like a rivalry but in this series you will see how both of them tried to build a strong foundation for India in either building space rockets or be it building Atom bombs. Jim Sharbh is outstanding ❤️
A big shout out to Achint Thakkar for the brilliant music again! I was hooked to the intro again!
The chemistry that Homi and Vikram share together was the highlight for me. They both love science, are patriotic at heart and want to see the country and it’s future flourish. They have differing philosophies on how to reach there, but still stick with each other even when at odds. The camaraderie was just marvelous.
And i agree wholeheartedly that portraying them as humans, as they were was a brilliant creative decision. It gave me a sense of relief that even great men like them could make mistakes, screw up but still end up doing what they did due to their perseverance.
The intro is as good as the scam one webseries..you will not feel like skipping it..
Hey Anmol, excellent review as usual. My favorite character however was Parvana. Pipsy is probably the source of the saying "behind the success of every great man is a great womam".
Female leads in the show were what representation of feminism should be like. Everyone was so accomplished. Everyone was inspiring.
Love for Mrs Bhabha, a loving mother.
Pipsy deserves the world. That bench scene had me 💔
@@TriedRefusedProductions Ohoho the bench scene. She is such a good actress. And he.
Jim, for a normally loquacious guy who often plays vibrant characters - can also do the Irrfan thing of just letting his eyes talk. That marriage scene, that quiet conversation with Mrinalini, that look at Saba, that walk away. waah ustaad.
Fictional character mam not real
Being a Parsi himself, Jim Sarbh was able to capture and project the Zoroastrian essence and ethos of Homi Bhabha's world very deftly.
the perfect casting!
Did homi j bhaba get drunk and used to swear like a loafer like they have shown in this series
@@cyke1234 now who's seen if he has or hasn't and why is it important just see the show and enjoy and learn abt the things they did for the country's scientific research 🤦 read the disclaimer it's a retelling which means there will be some creative liberties which won't hurt anyone..... parvana Irani wasn't even real 😂 she is semi based on a woman named phiroza wadia who was his rumoured gf and close aide in his research they were never married now did including her hurt the show in any way ? No ....then why does him drinking and swearing pose any problem?
@@Nishanth_mementomori it poses a problem bcoz it is a real person and showing him in a way he did not behave is not right. It is great scientist we are talking abt not a punk rocker. Imagine making a movie on Sachin and put kohli traits like shouting and abusing into him for sake of making him interesting . Would that be right. It would be better to make a fictional character and say it is based on homi Bhabha if u want to show him like that
@@cyke1234 dude he spent majority of his formative years in London which means obviously he'd have a bit of bad language in his vocabulary and would be interested in drinking as well.... "Showing him in a way he didn't behave" ? how do you know how he behaved ? how do you know he didn't speak that way ? You do know great scientists can have a life outside of science right 😂 they too are human beings....you seem to have an idealistic view of great men while forgetting that they too are men
Jim Sarbh and Ishwak Singh head a fantastic ensemble cast that brilliantly showcase India's atomic and space programmes.The eight nepisode series pragmatically debates patriotism, pacifism and showcases the hopes, needs, aspirations, and demands of a brave new India.
Jim Sarbh and Ishwak singh. . Both of them brilliant performers. But another one who stood out from the ensemble cast is Rajit Kapur who played Nehru. Man, his voice, walk, diction everything was so on point. And one rare scene wherein my heart swelled in pride was to was watch Bhabha, Sarabhai and Kalam on the same frame. ❤❤❤ truely an amazing series which India is and will be proud of in coming years 👏👏
Yessssss Rajit Kapur sir 😍😍😍😍😍
I mean nothing short of excellence to expect from Detective Byomkesh Bakshi
The bromance of Homi and Sarabhai is infectious!!!
It felt so great to see these historic figures sharing the screen and interacting with each other. This show was simply beautiful ❣️
Rocket Boys is a great show....I mean correct blend of facts,fiction and research.
Jim Sarbh as Dr. Homi J. Bhbha stands out for me. Ishwak Singh as Dr. Vikram Sarabhai also lends a great support in the storyline. OMG Dibyendu Bhattacharya as Raza Mehdi was so so bloody brilliant. Great casting.
Also Can I say how beautiful Reggina Massandra was as Mrinalini. She taking her decisions and making them very clear to Sarabhai. Also that scene when Sarabhai said to her that,"What is love if it's not a mix of both?" I mean😭🥺😭😭😭🥺❤
Saba Azad as Pipsy truly outdone herself. Pipsy deserves the world🥺❤
The story of these two flawed men,who come together and builds a nation is quintessential. It's about how they are willing to make a difference, even if in their own separate ways and clashing ideologies.
I enjoyed it a lot.
I can't wait for Season 2.
Also your thoughts on Gangubai Kathiawadi trailer??
The series made me cry just thinking about what greatness and education we had to what kind degradation are we headed to with youngsters running after instant fame with the tik toks of this time... Where have we lost our pursuit for science and technology and intellectual debates
And that sheer thought of the stalwarts CV raman , Bhabha , sarabhai, kalam , nehru , shashtri, jrd all existing in the same times and interacting really made be emotional
The amount of amazing and different performances Jim Sarbh gives is something he should be praised of more & more. Padmavat,Taish,Made in Heaven,Neerja and then this masterpiece 💥 Idk how but he nails them everytime
When they named Rocket boys and featured Homi Bhabha and Vikram Sarabhai, that time itself I knew that it is not just about Bhabha and Sarabhai but it is about great Rocket Scientists of our country because Homi Bhabha was involved in Nuclear physics not in space science.
I would like to suggest Mission ISRO, a podcast with Harsha bhogle...one will get more idea how these magnificent minds has driven independent India towards space research and nuclear energy.
Yes,, infact I would love to see that Mission ISRO podcast as a series. That has detailed story line and was expecting the same with this series but this one is more of a personal affair of those individuals.
There's also a podcast by NSIL on Spotify sponsored by Dassault systems
Sony Liv does a great job making compelling content across many subjects and disciplines including the financial and stock market world - Scam 1992, political machiavellianism- Maharani, Sci-tech biographies - Rocket Boys. And they make them in such a manner that enables the viewer to absorb and comprehend the intricacies of those worlds very deftly, sans any confusing jargon, while also upholding the quality of the content.
abb kon se stream pe content banaega
maybe history a periodic flim
Am i the only one who felt that the chemistry between Jim Sarbh and Ishwak Singh was as if they were lovers?
I too felt that 😂
👀
It is perfect in every way possible, could not ask for more. The way characters interact with each other feels so natural.
Something about the series makes it sooo special ...the subtle presentation, cinematography even the color pallets were so gorgeous ....it's makes u praise it ...it's slow burn ..it gives audience to be in that cinematic moments ..and relive history ... definitely one of the best series after a long time ❤️❤️❤️✌🏼
I was waiting for this review, the show was just fantastic. The plot is fascinating, not at all documentary feel. It feels as lively as any fiction kudos to director actors n team. Only dip moment for me was romantic scenes between mrinalini and sarabhai. Highly recommended. Another thing to notice is the writing, they cleverly used many of today's hyped words and in contrast showed it's true meaning, words like "atmanirbhar" testimony to that .
I can TRULY say that Sony Liv is the best OTT platform in making best content in India.
They just need some better marketing strategy.... I mean very few people gets notified that these types of series are even coming....
Its also the worst app among all platforms
@@buddhadey167 yeah... sony india puts most of the money to its tv production... they need to up their game in their app too... Bcz literally have such huge range from sports to movies to epic web series... i mean no one comes near to it....
way better than Netflix India
This series has my whole heart♥️♥️♥️ Also Vikram's proposal to Mrinalini was the sweetest thing ever! Definitely a must watch✨
Brilliant show, brilliant story telling, brilliant casting, brilliant BGM production. Something India can be really proud of. Loved it!
Sony Liv is the web platform not having the humongous marketing budgets of a Netflix or Amazon Prime Video but certainly a humongous word of mouth.
I just finished this show, and honestly came straight to see if you had reviewed it. Completely agree with your assessment, especially the privileged Brit one. Though, I liked the dimly lit frames on the show, reminded me a bit of Gordon Willis' work, especially the library scene and the scenes set in IISC. Those moments in the first 2 episodes reminded me a bit of Prisoner of Azkaban, with the way they portrayed classrooms and professor's office.
I am especially glad that they didn't dumb down the dialogues, most of these characters were educated privileged class, they spoke and carried themselves like one in the series. And I also loved the subtle class and religious discrimination commentary shown through Raza's character, he is someone you sympathise with as the show progresses, despite the big chip on his shoulder.
The BGM and opening credits were out of the park too, just couldn't stop myself from grooving to the BGM, reminded me a lot of Scam 1992, and skipping the opening title sequence for this show will be a travesty honestly, they have done a fabulous job.
This is honestly my favourite show produced in India after Paatal Lok, can't believe it's produced by an Indian programmer instead of BBC or something, because it gave that vibe completely.
So glad there's a second season all but confirmed, it would be amazing to see other great scientists included in the story next too and more of our scientific history explored.
Having binged watched this, feel such a sense of pride, not just about the fact that a part of our Indian history (which mind you, we weren't even taught in school, spare a few lines here and there , until Googl/Wiki came along) has been portrayed with such finesse and sincerity, while still being a thriller of an entertainer but just that finally we too have content in OTT Hindi series, where we just can't wait for the next season to come out... And where the content has nothing to do with Drugs/Mafia/scams/. Something we could only wish for, while watching English series on OTT platforms... Something we can watch with the kids together as a family and take pride in , rather than having to watch privately on our phones. Kudos to Abhay Pannu for pulling this off.. And I completely agree, Perfec Casting to the T, Flawless in its execution... Can't wait for 1965!
Sony tv also produces good story shows but never promote them. I don't know why they're so lazy in promoting their shows while star plus promotes even their crappy shows as something unique and out of the box!
Just me promoting the amazing podcast Mission ISRO by Harsha Bhogle that chronicles India's space story, under every Rocket Boys review. Worth every second, won't regret.
Rocket boys is a milestone....So beautifully put and executed. The icing on the cake as jammy rightly said...showed scientist community as real individuals...flawed and great. And that patriotism never stems from idealism but surely from real people.
The characters were portrayed very well physically as well as mentally.
It is a really mesmerizing show. It didn't glorify anyone, neither did it disrespect anyone. It mostly showed the truth (albeit, with a few fabrication of facts, which can be ignored) which is commendable. It focused on all the characters equally and it felt really good to see the people I have read in books, to come into life. The casting was fabulous, the research behind the show was intense and few of the scenes, like the flag hoisting on Independence Day and the launching of the first rocket are very emotional. It didn't fear to use scientific words or regional words (which many shows prefer not to use as it would lessen the target audience). Overall, it is one of the greatest web series I have ever seen.
I felt Ishwak Singh was too good (even better than Jim) in 1st few episodes but later the Homi Bhabha story became more interesting & Jim just blew us away. Hope 2nd season do justice for Ishwak & not just Jim.
Spoiler alert...but not really, since this history.
Jim won't be there for much time in the second season.
Rocket Boys felt like history unfolding itself in front of my eyes. That's how perfectly this show is made.
OTT Platforms prove again and again we have tons of talents unexposed , underutilized and unrecognized..
Happy to see finally many are getting chances to prove their talents
You didn't even mention the bgm of the show throughout the series.. I mean when I heard the title track in the first episode it was all chills.. Even the graphics for the titles beautifully compliment the music and vice versa.
This was indeed the best web series made so far!! Jim sarbh as Homi bhabha was something of a fabulous casting itself even Ishwak singh as Vikram sarabhai.... these both performed like they were living the characters of great scientists
& ofc APJ Abdul kalam's entry gave goosebumps.... overall this series is a true masterpiece!! sure go for it guys
The trailer with the ending cameo of Sir APJ Abdul Kalam felt kinda similar to "the current wars", when Tesla enters. But both the stories are similar and very different at the same time
Is the current wars a series?
Where can I watch it?
@@darthvader2158 With a username of "Doctor strange", the expectation is to know of a Benedict Cumberbatch movie :P Its not a series, a movie
ruclips.net/video/hmOUIDiJgHY/видео.html
I was so happy to hear Kannada lines in the series. And Performance wise I was awestruck by Jim Sarbh
I am in awe of the team of Sonyliv // Back to back great content, ..
SCAM 1992, ROCKET BOYS, BHOOTAJALAM , MADHURAM , SIVARANJANIYUM SILA PENGALUM ,,thinkalazhcha nishchayam ,
TABBAR , CUBICLES, VAAZH , FAMILY DRAMA , ETC.......
Exactly what I wanted to say!! The casting of this series is just a miracle
Trp is here .yess I was waiting for this to come. Great cast .
I understand that the makers had to take cinematic liberties because they had a mammoth task in hand of condensing a lot in a short series but there are some date related inaccuracies and factual errors that stood out like a sore thumb for me. Also the screentime given to the love angles could've been limited. Apart from that It's a binge worthy show I finished it in a sitting 😁
I agree with you #Jammy. The show is perfectly woven by balancing their professional and personal life's, portraying them humans only and not god like person who can do no wrong. I really liked it and waiting for the second season, hopefully which will be coming this year only.
Hi, as a researcher I am bit disappointed with the show. In my opinion somewhere they missed showing the challenges faced by them in establishing these institutes and the problems they faced at basic ground level (except one with ATIRA). These problems are brushed through dialogues exchanged between Homi J Baba and Vikram Sarabhai. They focused too much on their personal lives. I understand that they are not gods and should not be treated as one but their contributions to scientific community is way more than showcased in the show. I hope to see more of their scientific contribution in season 2. However, I am happy that this show showcases their personality in a very raw and honest manner. Also, I haven't found the character "Raza Mehendi". I am not sure if he is fictional or real. Please let me know if someone finds it.
Raza Mehdi is a fictional character. May be they have introduced to make it more interesting and i read somewhere that maker have take reference from Dr Meghnad Saha for the character.
Ok so there's a rumour that Crowley ordered a hit on Homi and that his death was not an accident. To bank on that, i think they created fictitious villians to add drama.
For a change, I loved personal life drama and went on internet Rabbit hole about Mrinalini and Kamala and their lives. Because we don't have videos or wiki updates about their young age, we only know their scientific achievements, not personal life.
@@Swapna9 hey, whatever they showed about Kamala and Vikram, is it all true?
@@TJ-xr2go Yes, that's true....coz if it wouldn't have been their family would have filed a case against the makers for disrespecting Dr. Vikram Sarabhai.
@@TJ-xr2go yeah, true. Kamla and vikrams affair lasted till his death. IIM A was started because of his obsession with her, he didn't want her to leave Ahmedabad so got iim there and made her incharge. She was really good at work though. His daughter said he loved both wife and mistress equally. It's a weird dynamic
Sony Liv easily produces some of the country's best content but least marketed content. Kinda like a "black sheep" underdog of the web platform world. It barely has the outreach and influence of a Netflix or Amazon Prime Video. It relies mostly on an overwhelmingly powerful word of mouth to top the charts.
It truly is an excellent series with great performances and adept screenplay and story writing... it's a product that competes on a global level... with movies like the theory of everything And the imitation game. Apart from the series being phenomenal in every shape and form I still don't understand why are people not talking about Achint thakur's Melancholic and soulful theme song... something that fits perfectly with the narrative. . He's the same man who gave us the brilliant scam 1992 soundtrack
I am a researcher and was especially looking forward to watch this series. Thanks for the review, further cements my intentions to watch it. I totally agree with your point of being a wallflower and view their lives , I would for most scientists.
Abdul Kalamji's entry gave me goosebumps. He was a superhuman whom everyone loved.
I was looking forward for this series after watching the trailer. The ending of the trailer was goosebumps 🔥. Nowadays good serieses are coming out . We should watch and support these contents from our country, or who will .
Sony TV as a channel and Sony liv as an OTT platform has always brought beautiful shows.
Anmol bhai, you should do a review on these, specially the tv shows of 90s and 2000s on Sony. Which I believe had a niche against the "qayamat of Ekta Kapoor's K-Shows"
Jim sarbh more deserving than so called actors varun dhawan ananya pandey Siddhanth chaurvedi tiger shroff!!!
Include shradha ,arjun also
same in other industries.tollywood shud encourage new actors n nt star kids
I was very excited since it's trailer was released, n Happy it's story about our nation scientists for whom we should always be proud of. I loved the show because it doesn't exaggerate or added any masala in it , it's story of hardwork, ups n down, failure n last success.
Rajit Kapoor has also played Gandhi, and is supposedly playing Vikram Sarabhai himself in Rocketry: The Nambi Effect
Yes. It's so inspiring. It achieved its objective if the goal was to inspire. Several 'goosebump' moments. All actors killed it. Of course the main heroes - Jim Sarbh and Ishwak Singh were simply outstanding, you can see it in their faces that they felt the characters' journey. And of course, the writing, dialogues, art direction, cinematography was equally brilliant too. Thanks to Roy Kapur and Emmay films for bringing this to us🙏
Without revealing spoilers, my favourite scene would be the scenes post Pandit Ji's speech on Tryst with destiny. Especially the change to Tamil and the series showing us the first glimpse of APJ Abdul Kalam, his intelligent analogy he shared with a chacha at the masjid. I have replayed that scene so many times and to be honest I was so overwhelmed with tears. Rightfully said, you don't need a 4 or 400 page sheet to declare patriotism, it's best felt and acted upon when there is immense love for our country.
Some Trivia: The 1999 movie "October Sky" was initially named "Rocket Boys" but the name was dropped off because the producers felt it won't appeal to a larger audience and decided to use an anagram of the name instead; rearranged the letters of "Rocket Boys" to make it "October Sky". Not sure how much inspired this series is by October Sky. I initially thought its a rip off, but great to know that its still original.
Imagine a day, When Sonyliv's interference is great, Marketing is also great along with quality content: The Best OTT platform
The BGM was perfect too. That classical touch whenever mrinalini was present.
I watched this series with my son. Such inspiring content we need as parents to show to our kids..to inspire them and to make them understand the concept of patriotism. Actually these are the real life heroes they should idealize. So glad to see our favourite APJ Abdul Kalam Sir's youth..and my son's fav scene was rocket launching at Thumba. He also fell in love with the title music n it's graphics!
This will be landmark show for Young Indians. Finally teenagers will have real heroes to look up to.
Thank you from the Casting Director of this marvel! We are so glad you loved our hard work and intent.
All those andhbhakt who say '70 saal se desh mein kya hua' need to watch this series, maybe it will help them understand what a great visionary Nehru was🙏🙏
Absolutely loved the series😍😍 I completely agree with the entire review. It is sad, enraging and amazing at the same time that how our text books never ever covered the journey of such brilliant souls! I thank the makers and the channel for such a phenomenal show👏👏👏
There was a great attention to detail as well
The little bit of Kannada( in the crowd) when shot in bangalore was pleasing to hear
I absolutely loved watching this series. Love watching your reviews very much too. Really can relate to it. Both the leads were amazing . Rajit kapoor as jawaharlal Nehru was such a great performance people are not talking about. Really agree with the dimly lit scenes part. At one point I thought some problem with my laptop screen and kept increasing brightness.
This is one of the best series I have seen...will recommend highly
This web series is going to be the torch bearer for many more to come. It's time movie makers start dishing out movies/ott series on sensible subjects like.
Such a series was long showcasing the untiring dedication. This is patriotism and not the jingoism we witness.
Jammy one word of advise to you- if you can take pause while you speak. Review is always super but the way it sound is like robotic and very mechanical. U already have this disadvantage of nothing having vedios supporting your review.
Look out for the competition as well., Team 5ocial for example...Fam of You 2 and always look forward for reviews...
I was eagerly waiting for this review @tried and refused productions. If you wouldn't have so I would have suggested you. Phenomenal acting in the roles of Dr. BHABHA AND Dr. SARABHAI. It was a joy to watch the chemistry between Dr. CV Raman - Dr. Bhabha - Dr. Sarabhai and Dr. Sarabhai - Dr. Kalam - Dr Bhabha. We were so lucky to have the most brilliant minds in the world in out country and too in overlapping time. I can't even imagine what their aura would be and how privileged the people around them would be😍. I enjoyed it a lot, more because I follow Dr. Kalam and am a fan of physics and space exploration. Lots of love to the series and makers❤❤❤
The most perfect series in a while indeed.
My views on this show: Jim's acting seemed to be a bit over the top at times. Not sure if that was the demand of the script or was Homi Baba such a person. I too felt the show should have shown an bit more on their work than their personal life. The best moment of the show for me was when they put their efforts in launching the first rocket when they had almost given up.
It gave me goosebumps especially after being in TIFR and IISc and to know these legends were there.
Attention to detail is one of the USPs of this series. That big unique ear prosthesis of Vikram Sarabhai, Voice of Nehru, posture of Indira on last episode where nehru is playing with children...etc etc
Brilliant acting performances and a dynamic story needs multi season series and also a focus on their personal life, their personality traits is as important as their contribution to the community which is perfectly balanced by the creators. I wouldn't mind if this series was 3 - 4 seasons long.
This is the kind of series that must be supported.....perfectly done. We are in a glorious age of filmmaking.......I just hope the greatest story ever told on this planet is brought to life.......its a story that is 3000 years old...with so many complex characters and sub layers.....imagine if its made with a sense of realism......the series I am referring to is The Mahabharata.
Please review Panghrun, a Marathi masterpiece now in theatres
I believe that the weightage that the personal life of Dr. homi bhabha and Dr. Vikram sarabhai has been given in this series is debatable because it is a subjective to the historical accuracy it holds
The personal life was given good weightage in a movie like Shershaah however the viewers did loved the movie because of the fact that the personal life of Captain Vikram Batra which was portrayed in the movie was historically accurate to the great extent and never felt over the top
Being said that no wonder there are moment in this webseries which gives you goosebumps literally.
One scene which reverberates in my head is the entry of the Dr. APJ abdul kalam !!!
As you said, I saw the trailer last Sunday which was just a pop-up ad on RUclips video... After having a look at the trailer.. i was very eager to watch the series... After it being released I had to binge watch it in cabin.... Truly awesome series..
Loved it . People were offended with love track, which was real and not with added fictitious villians. Most of the incidents mentioned in the show are real, all actors nailed their roles and my generation and the next came to understand the decisions and the order of events that occurred. That's a win.
The first episode was the best but the third episode really slowed down the story for me .The whole story of Vikram Sarabhai and his wife felt unnecessary to me as it was a show of science and it’s role in our nation independence. But the acting was top notch by both actors . Jim sarbh stole the show for me .
Overwhelmingly good. A masterpiece for me and a diamond for the nation. Proud to be in india where scientist like homi bhabha and vikram sarabhai and progressive pm like nehru ji
I love everything physics, history and politics so this show was pretty intriguing. But parts of it really became difficult to watch- the courting, unnecessarily long side plots, and the cliches. I was left longing for their iconic scientific developments but the show seemed more interested in filler episodes. It felt like the entire season could have been made into an epic movie rather than these long episodes. 🤔
The THEME SONG AND VISUALS THOUGH 🙌🏼 goosebumps every time.
I love the way you break a series or movie to define the storyline! Having said that, why would you decide the tone, the stage and treatment of lights sailing through the story and moreover the story is about 2 genius who also had personal life apart from their love for science. Cmon we are in a phase where we can witness such good story telling and producers backing them.
Achint is the unsung hero of Rocket Boys. The music of the series deserves more love, the intro music was fabulous but the best for me was Malini's Theme. I hope they release the soundtrack ASAP
The problem with the cinematography is the use of extensive backlighting. Often times it darkens the character's face and dims the room. I have the same problem with a web series called - Hostages season 2.
The entry of KALAM sir in the trailer bought tears in my eyes
So true unending goosebumps
I wait everyday for tried and refused productions to post cause it's a sense of relief 😌. Also this series is lit 🔥
I have so many praises for this show, but the best should go for the writing, and I mean not just scenes and setups, but actual conversations, they seem so genuine and natural and the flow is so smooth that the chemistry between people is instantly formed and this is very important because when the show doesn't show dialogues and conversations between people and we feel the weight of the silences because we felt the connection between them when they actually spoke to each other.
Another aspect I think is to be talked about or was missing in this video, was the gripping background music and the super intriguing Theme Song, the best after Scam 1992(Achint does the magic again). Rocket Boys is love ❤️
I fell in love with the theme
Added to my watchlist🤩🤩
Waiting for your opinion on the trailer of Gangubai Kathiawadi
There is not a single flaw in this series.. its a masterpiece for me.
I think you missed on the excellent background score, cuz in many scenes when actors are silent, the score is what speaks. All the scenes where Jim Sarbh and Rajat Kapoor together are the excellent of excellence…
People are talking about only Homi J. Bhabha , Vikram Sarabhai and APJ Abdul Kalam. Haven't seen any comment about C.V. Raman at the back. He's the only noble laureate in physics from India. Another great mind whom many people doesn't know about.
Sony ! Sony! Sony ! You never disappoints me when it comes to either ITV shows or Your series !
