The popular Tamil star R Madhavan, who made his directorial debut with the film ‘Rocketry: The Nambi Effect’, has been drawing flak after claiming that panchang, a Hindu calendar, helped ISRO to successfully launch a rocket into space. He is playing the role of a genius scientist Nambi Narayan in the film. R Madhavan was speaking about the ISRO’s Mars Orbiter Mission during a promotional event for his upcoming much hyped drama ‘Rocketry: The Nambi Effect’. The social media users noticed R Madhavan’ comment and attempted to teach a lesson to him. There were some who took a dig at Madhavan over his latest claims.
One of the netizen wrote: Disappointed that ISRO has not published this vital information on their website. Time to also consider a Mars Panchangam! In case you do not understand Tamil the gist is Indian rockets did not have 3 engines ( solid, liquid and cryogenic) that helps western rockets propel themselves into mars orbit. But since Indian lacked that they used all the information in the panchangam (hindu almanac).
Madhavan is acting and producing ‘Rocketry: The Nambi Effect’, a biopic on Nambi Narayanan, a former scientist and aerospace engineer of the Indian Space Research Organisation, who was falsely accused of espionage.
