Helmed by R Madhavan, Rocketry: The Nambi Effect is a biopic based on former ISRO scientist and aerospace engineer Nambi Narayanan. The film stars Madhavan, Misha Ghoshal, Ravi Raghavendra and Simran in pivotal roles. Suriya and Shah Rukh Khan had cameo roles in the movie. The film was released in English, Tamil, Hindi, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam.

Thanking everybody for Rocketry’s success, Madhavan had said, “In these times when biopics about gangsters and scamsters are getting audiences’ attention, I am grateful that people made time to see a biopic on a scientist who gave his blood, sweat and tears to make our nation proud.”

He added, “It’s seven years of penance finally paying off. I was told to introduce songs and fights into Nambi Sir’s story. Can you imagine Nambi Sir singing, dancing and fighting? Sorry, I would have preferred to not make the film rather than dilute the story of a man who refused to buckle under pressure.”
