Here's why you should watch Rocket Boys
1. The Central Intelligence Agency, which has its Langley headquarters, was depicted in Season 1 of "Rocket Boys" using its assets in India to attempt and thwart the grandeur that India aspired to and was on the verge of achieving. As India strives to become "the laughing Buddha," expect more plots to come to light.
2. Season 1 of Rocket Boys highlighted the tense relationship between space scientist Vikram Sarabhai and his wife, classical dancer Mrinalini Sarabhai. While they continue with their ground-breaking initiatives, the most recent season explored their connection in more detail. Beware Regina Cassandra's (Mrinalini) poise and thoughtful expressions.
3. One of the main factors in season one's popularity was the unmistakable attention to historical detail, down to the cuff links. The viewers were transported back to the time when the country was having a tryst with destiny thanks to the skillful camera work, atmospheric music, and imaginative narration.
Homi and Vikram are shown as characters in Rocket Boys 2 who are adamant about achieving their goals. Vikram wants to launch satellites, whereas Homi thinks India need to have nuclear weapons.
There is mystery, historical context, and a lot of character development as the show returns later this month. The series, which was directed by Abhay Pannu, seems to pick up where it left off in February 2022.
The initial season received eight Filmfare OTT awards last year, including Best Drama Series and Best Director.
The synopsis for the show reads: ¡°Rocket Boys 2 is the story of independent India¡¯s formative years, as the country is amidst turbulence with belligerent political hostility, changing hands of power within the country and international agencies keeping close watch on the country¡¯s ambition. The show is a thrilling narrative of the incredible life and times of Dr Homi J. Bhabha, Dr Vikram Sarabhai, and Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, as they wade through challenges and difficulties on their mission to make India a nuclear nation.¡±
The series will release on SonyLiv on 16th march.
