Mission Mangal

[Machine Translation] The stars and crew of "Padman: The Man Who Saved 500 Million Women" reunite! The true story of Asia's first successful Mars exploration project. --In 2010, the launch of a rocket that would have sealed the fate of India's space program fails, and the project managers, Tara (Vidya Balan) and Rakesh (Akshay Kumar), are transferred to a "quiet job" in a Mars exploration project that everyone thinks is unfeasible. Tara is a housewife, and Rakesh (Akshay Kumar) is transferred to a "quiet job" in the Mars exploration project, which everyone thinks is unfeasible. Tara, who is also a housewife, comes up with an idea to send a probe to Mars even with a small rocket, and the project is launched, albeit on a low budget. However, compared to the flowery lunar exploration project, the project team is a shadow of its former self, and the staff assembled for the project is a collection of inexperienced, second-stringers who are not exactly top class. At first, the team is disjointed, but with the women's ideas to save money, they unite and struggle to make the Mars launch a success, even with a small budget. In 2013, the Mars probe "Mangalyaan," which was the fruit of their ideas and efforts, was launched to Mars.
