Jim Sarbh as Homi J Bhabha
As per reports, when Jim Sarbh was asked about the show, he says, “These guys, Vikram and Homi, were just so fascinating. Two young men with fantastical dreams for their country, who just kept at it, working and working, to bring their visions into reality, to make their country a scientific superpower. And all the while, through toil and trouble, they managed to have colorful exuberant lives, as well! I can’t wait for the audience to watch it on SonyLIV.”
Even Ishwak Singh was asked about the show and he says, “It is delightful for an artist to portray a character that is so iconic and deeply rooted in the country’s history. At the same time, it is a huge responsibility. I hope I have been able to do justice to the role of Vikram Sarabhai, who initiated space research and helped develop nuclear power in India. It has been a wholesome experience to work on this show. I am looking forward to it on SonyLIV.”
The series is created by Nikkhil Advani, Roy Kapur Films & Emmay Entertainment.
