Two stalwarts together keeping history live. Both are great in their.own right. Thank you Nambhi Sir, for not giving up. You are an inspiration to all generations to come. And Madhavan another great performance under your belt. Just loved the movie. Love your acting.My kids were amazed at the production quality.Great job well done. You both have done a great service to the nation.
Hats off to you Nambi Sir for your technical contribution in the country and your perseverance and courage to fight against injustice. You are a great inspiration to many of us oldies and also the young generation. Congratulations Madhavan for bringing out the film on Nambi Sir. Your contribution to bring out the real story in spite of any help from the film industry in general is commendable. Viewers will always be indebted to you for your personal dream, commitment and contribution Thanks Shekharji, who I hold in high esteem for his journalistic contribution, for organising this OC episode. It’s great. Congratulations Manasi for very effectively conducting this interview. Wishing you all the best for your career Shrikant Marathe
I saw this movie in theatre last week in Canada, and I can say, it is a must watch by all Indians! It is a phenomenal story, and Madhavan’s acting is at another level. Also, at the end of the movie, I felt like saying, “Sorry” to Nambisir as an Indian for all that he had endured as a citizen of India.
@@yj9032 Lol 😂 Why are you so rattled? Are you unhappy with your IELTS score or something? You seem very bitter. Btw, I could say the same thing about you, “Mind your own business.” STOP commenting on a personal decision of an individual. If you’re happy with your decision, then that’s great. Why bother about others?
Superb reply on Oscars, Madhavan Sir. You are truly a gem of the Indian movie industry 👌. And, regarding the Nambi Sir’s agony, no one can imagine and understand the pain he went through. At least at the end, he got his due recognition
Nambi sir, my namaskarams to you 🙏 God has tested your will power & strength and you have come out in flying colours. I also believe that he has been with you at all important points. God has sent Madhavan sir for this job - no one else could have been as honest & genuine as him to portray you & ur achievements. Since the time i have watched Rocketry, I have been obsessed with watching all your interviews. In my daily walks or any free time I get, i listen to you or Maddy sir wrt your life or this movie which portrays ur life. The respect that Madhavan sir has for Nambi sir is so apparent to see in all his expressions. Nambi sir's simplicity, humility, honesty & brilliance is just beyond extraordinary. Being an Indian, i feel guilty for having let down such a great human being. My salutations to you sir, once again 🙏. Many many thanks to Madhavan sir for sharing Nambi sir's story 🙏
Excellent interview. Ms Phadke has done her research well and has conducted the interview equally well too. Kudos for matching Mr Gupta in terms of intelligent articulation and graceful humility👏
It is very soothing and empowering to listen a man of such character and integrity. That's what like a true indian personality. Hats off to Nambi Narayan Sir. Also kudos to Madhavan as an actor, Director for actually fulfilling the duty of cinema i.e that is serving nation a cinema which is beyond entertainment. Thanks manshi and SG for being a great host and participant for this talk. Feels very proud to know that SG sir is one of the rarest person with spine in journalism who reported the nambi sir's case with truth when everyone was capitalising the fake fabricated espionage case without any humanity.
The best part of the interview was Nambi sir giving it in the face of Praveen Swami. Journalists feel they are most intelligent and they understand everything and they judge everyone and everything instead of giving facts and objective reports.
What an excellent interview by all participants. Madhavan is the right person for taking on the project. He's intelligent, thoughtful, humble and clear-eyed. Nambi Narayanan is a warrior scientist who will be remembered for his courage and faith as much as his contribuitions to the Indian space program and country. Shekhar Gupta is a man of substance and balance and that comes through in his work. The young lady asked excellent questions and was respectful. Best wishes.
Being scientist in Indian institutes is economically not viable for all the education, effort, OTs and sleepless nights. It's just maddening passion that keeps them driving. I gave up on R&D after 8yrs of stupid "follow the passion" naive belief.
After going through his lifestory I really want to admire his efforts and patience he maintained throughout this tough years and simultaneously feel guilty about being part of that society which judges everything on its face value and never bothers to think and cross check for even once before forming a opinion and starts social trials on political provocations.Also it makes me feel worried that still majority of the people doesn't know about him. As an Indian I feel regretful that we are failing to recognise such humanely extraordinary personalities and snaching from them their very existence by weakening them indirectly weakening nation. Hope India will ensure that no such similar incident would repeat. Also hope that innumerable Mr. Nambi's will serve the nation without letting waste their capacities and talents. Thank you Mr.Nambi sir for the learnings you gave through your life and contributions. We citizens of this country are indebted to you and many other great contributers and visionaries like you. 🙏 Thanks Maddy for bringing this masterpiece. { Rocketry - The Nambi Effect } Tons of love buddy ❤️ 🛰 📡
It saddens me to think that some of our own can wrong another of our own innocent for cheap/selfish means! If i get to meet Mr Nambi Sir i will want to take his blessings!
Nambi sir should be made honorary ISRO chairman at least for a day .Madhavan can make this happen if Nambi sir agrees.This Will also ensure that scientific temper is always respected in our country
Wonder how our governments were ok with what nambi Sir went through!! Shows how much they loved our country and it’s people. Really deplorable. Good to see positive change happening in that space!!
1 or 2 cr given is nothing to him. He had an offer from NASA which he refused and struggled his whole life to prove his love towards his country. Everyone at the top level in ministry should apologise to him. Kuch deserved the president of ISRO We are proud to have such amazing human being
Most heart touching statement came at the end when SG thanked Nambi Sir " thanks for being there, fighting the case and making us keep faith in our system and judiciary". Thanks SG for being there at the initial stages of the case, digging up facts and publishing them in a prestigious & widely circulating magazine and taking the steam out of the case. Most importantly Big Thanks for giving Nambi Sir support when he needed it the most.
Very good interview.. a big Salute to Nambi Sir and Madhawan... I also had tears in my eyes when Madhawan described the part when Nambi sir had tears in his eyes. Indians are much more than others think and definitely we don't have to prove it to anybody ...No validation required from anyone in the world.
Thank you so much Shekhar and Manasi for taking my question related to the scientific community's, ISRO's support to Shri Nambi Narayanan, and whether he felt some some repair to his reputation and recognition of his amazing contributions when GOI awarded the Padma Bhushan. As a fellow engineer/person-of-science, I can understand recognition and support from your peer community is everything, and it must have been hard for him to see it fall short in the initial days when he needed it the most. Thank you Madhavan for acting in and making such a wonderful film; will be going for a repeat view in the next few days. ISRO is the giant that it is today owing to selfless commitment to the nation by scientists like Shri Nambi Narayanan. I have absolute admiration for what ISRO has accomplished till date. Jai Hind 🙏 #OffTheCuff
Big congratulations to R Madhaven ! You really did fantastically well Directing and acting this movie. Mr Nambi, I am so pleased that you never gave up - You should know you are a hero ! Knowing the Congress party politics and the deaths of about 1000 scientists from about 2009 to 2013, I am pleasantly surprised and pleased that ThePrint are having this interview

What an answer for Oscar.. hear hear madhavan sir. I am in Australia and it's the same here, they still call us the 3rd world country and no idea whats wrong but for them we are still in colonial era .. awsome inspiration from Nambi sir
This movie is a masterpiece. Madhavan as an actor has always been very good but as a director too he has come out equally good. It is so sad that most of us didn't know about the achievements, successes of Nambi sir. The movie achieves this aim successfully.
This episode was so good. Only wish this had not happened to honourable Nambi sir & his family. But thank God he proved himself. What a man 🙏 May God keep him & his family always happy.
Everyone in India must watch this movie to understand what it takes for a scientist to hold himself firm and fight for the sake of his country and to make a statement that this kind of treatment should never happen to any other scientist who is out to make a mark for his nation. Amazing man.
First response by Madhavan is one tight slap to Sekhar ji and his cute questioning ! “It’s about his achievements and not his misery” Pardon my words!!!
Heartening to hear that there were good journalist those days as well. Media cannot play the game of courts or that of investing agencies. There is no way a scientist can be compensated for his career lost in Media trial and foul play of a few vested interests. Appreciate Nambis maturity in his response even after such a bad.media trial. He still do not harber ill-will.
Nambi Narayanan needs more than Padma Bhushan, but we have lost a lot of time in ISRO , India lost a super man who could have done wonders in the field of space science, I am surprised that none from ISRO came out in support for him , and also the central government. India is a country where a foreign force can influence and stop a genius man from doing great innovations, and blocking us becoming a super power in Most fields , when we look at most CEO’s in the world , we mostly see Indians , and most Indians have fled India and working else were and excelling in each field they work shows , that India does not provide the right space and honour for them to work . I congratulate Madhavan for his efforts and courage to do such films , and the pain he has taken to understand the subject and bring out such a film. A first timer as a director plus acting is not a easy task for him to do . Hope and pray he gets an award for this film , and let not India loose another superman like Nambi Narayanan sir , I hope and pray under the present leadership India should show who Indians are to the world. Hope someone brings out a book about Nami Narayanan life Journey till date . Only from 2014 the whole world is looking at India’s talent, and respecting Indian when we are in a foreign soil .
Last scene of the movie comparing the situation of an ISRO scientist and a NASA scientist of same level forced me to cry🙏🙏🙏..Nambi sir we've failed as a country 😔😔by not giving you what you deserved..
I salute Sekhar Gupta a highly principled Journalist which is so rare today to boost the morale of Nambi Narayan through his interview along with Madavan. Now whole country watched the story of horrible treatment a great scientist met in our country. This is an eye opener for future generation. Madavan gets a chunk of credit for this.
@shekharguptaji i am very proud of you that you stood by Nambi sir in those trying times. My support and love will continue to be with you and this kind of journalism
I think the Indian audience deserves a solid movie on critical journalists like Shekhar Gupta sir. Possibly, it would act as a medicine in times like that of ours to inspire and popularize the real journalism among the masses!
Thanks Mr Raghavan. You brought the issue and now people are talking. Where was the honest media all these years? Now the media is making their TRP on your work. I don’t want to blame anybody. If the media is really honest to its job. The culprits must be disclosed and if alive must pay for their crime and labeled as traitors at least. Till that done justice is not done to Dr Nambi Narayanan and others, also at the end to the science and the country.
Thank you Shekhar for this interview.. A scientist that should have been celebrated, wasted by few men's stupid petty money mindedness, but grits his teeth to get his name cleared.. Such an honour to see this episode!!!
As I watched this interview, I felt my print subscription is doubly worth. Thanks print for their wonderful picks on current subjects. I believe naming NAMBI to a ISRO's prominent facility would be a good commendation for nation's and ISRO's mistake in this so called SPY case.
After watching this interview I came to realize how immaturely did the Malayalam media and the police department behaved. In fact it borders towards criminal action because one innocent person's life was made completely upside down. Both the Malayalam media, the state government and the police department must publicly apologize to Nambi Narayan sir. Also hats off R Madhavan who felt a real sense to make a film so the public knows about the truth and real justice is done.
Hats off to Madhavan for telling this amazing untold story ..... Big Thank you to Nambi sir all he has done for the country and a big Sorry for all the suffering he had to go through
Thank you for bringing this story once again apart from an earlier CTC episode that had watched as well. Bottom line our investigative agencies and judiciary needs a serious overhaul !!
We need public labs (chemical, electronic, robo, agri and so) set up in neighbourhoods like libraries. This helps kids to learn basics. Request your policy makers to make it happen
please induct Nambi Sir into a university and ask him to publish a book on his works, please this will really help students & future generations of ISRO
So many emotions were brought back watching this interview, after having to watch the movie last week. This one is must watch in theatres, I have so much respect for Nambi sir, and Madhavan, to pick this as his passion project.
Namaste Shekar Sir, Thanks to you and your team for bringing Nambi Sir. It was an amazing interview. Thanks to Madhavan Sir for making a movie on the marvel. Thanks 🙏🏼
I am an ISRO scientist and I work at Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre. I can vouch for the seriousness and love for science people have here. Sure a lot of people just do government job, but many just love their craft and absolutely love their country. It is sad that this happened to Nambi sir.
Sir, This is with reference to the various video programmes with rocketry team. Kudos for the way it has been conducted the interview and brought out answers from a person with strong self respect as Sri Nambi Narayan and the ever energetic and smiling Mr. Madhavan . The discussion and reports brought out many facts about how some people tried to slow down the economic and technological growth of our country their personal motives. Our present Indian Government is putting in all efforts to bring about positive changes to the society at large and is working hard towards placing India on the global map despite constraints of various types and degree from within. The Prime minister is toiling day in and day out to make India “aatmanirbhar” in every walk of life through techno economic study followed by its timely implementation. In your interview with Mr. Nambi Narayan, a few of the questions that you asked and his responses along with some views expressed by Mr.Madhavan encouraged me to send this email. The Indian technocrats are second to none. They are highly competitive , competent and sincere in their approach. But, sometimes a few for their own self importance, more power and publicity go to any extent . This happens in every field in India Further as per Indian system , it’s easy for one to complain against another person with no facts and at no cost . But it’s the responsibility of the other to prove his innocence and he/ she has to spend a lifetime behind that. During that time it is observed that the vilified person is alienated in both his official and personal life leading to mental pressure on him as well as his family . Whatever may be the compensation given it shall not give him/ her his lost life period. Being witnesses to such situations brings about fear in the minds of many youngsters and this in turn will be a deterrent for them in bringing out their inherent potential out in public life. I hope your detailed interviews and presentations will bring an awakening in all youngsters to give their best to their country irrespective of the problem faced.

Thrilled watching the movie and the biopic, A living Legend who has fought the battle of life ,peoples generally say it's not a Rocket Science for any hardship . You have gone through it and lived it you are the" father of India ROCKET SCIENCE" . Thanks Maddy am always been your BIG fan more then that I loved you as a person who you are and by making this biopic and showing us who Nambi sir is and to the world what is India capable of and being proud Indian .Truly Honoured .!
Good interview. One question remained not raised, why Mr. Nambi Narayanan was not allowed bu ISRO back to be part of cryogenic engine development program after he was acquitted. I don't think any scientist would really forget his subject, he may not be capable of leading multiple divisions but surely he could have contributed to the development of engine subsequently.
He said he couldn't because he spent 4 years fighting the case and his wife became mentally ill. And they had already filled his position so he would have to work under him, also due to the fack he was out of touch and disappointment how his own country treated him for his patriotism be didn't want to continue. Would u have joined again ur own government calls u a traitor for developing advanced rocket technology and they gave ur posting to someone else. They could have at least given back his posting and made the new guy one step below him with the same salary.
The stain on reputation, that took only recently to be cleared in court of law. 10 yrs of baseless accusations means ISRO would not risk hiring him even if he is a loyal and smart scientist. Public Perception unfortunately trumps truth.
Really looking forward to watching this movie after seeing the interview and what makes it more poignant is that it’s a true story. Thank you Print for bringing this interview to us!
Thank you for making us meet such a great person. Listening to him was a spiritual experience. The interview team seemed to be short in terms of preparation or ability or depth.
Mr Nambi Narayananji is correct in his remarks; the damage was already done and now, everyone who not only wronged Mr Narayanaji but damaged the image of India ISRO should be brought to justice!
Dear Mr Nambi Sir, I am very sorry for what the nation put you through.that person who time and again showed his patriotism,has to face this..it is very disheartening and I can apologize with all my heart.Thanks a lot for your contributions to this country.I would like to let you know it is people like you,who inspire us,who motivate us and make us feel proud and lucky we are your fellow countrymen.Salute to you Sir.
It is so so sad that India didn't recognize its true patriot and a wonderful scientist and such fake cases were reported against him. To know that SG sir reported this case of Nambi Sir truthfully makes all of us more respectful to him.
A great biopic indeed. Very little is known about this great son of India, to even the past generations, let alone the present. A great tribute to his patriotism by Madhavan who is known to be ambidexterous in filmcraft. Nambi Sir is one who can be equaled to another great Rishi of our age Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Sir. Unfortunately, the best part of his prime service time has been marked by trials and tribulations . The stoicism exhibited by Nambi Sir in the face of the odds is unparalleled. The Director took tremendous care to establish the impeccable character of this great man in so minute a detail. This is evident from the fact that on two three occasions, when a female character approaches him on a possible love or trap note, he would say esoterically referring to his love for his wife, hinting at his strong intent of disapproval, making the other retract. It's a tell-tale that he can never be honeytrapped which was a concocted allegation against him. It is good that at least now the Apex Court has ordered a full scale CBI investigation into the conspiracy. Let us hope that all those who were involved in the conspiracy either living or dead will be exposed.

Saw the movie today. It's a shame that India and it's people never recognized those who really worked for the country.

This is a very interesting story. I'm worried how young generation of scientists in India will think of joining ISRO? The story should encourage them.
We don't want to , rich and luck one go out

Big congratulations to R Madhaven ! You really did fantastically well Directing and acting this movie.

Knowing the Congress party politics and the deaths of about 1000 scientists from about 2009 to 2013, I am pleasantly surprised and pleased that ThePrint are having this interview
Rocketry..
Riveted to the screen I was
Every second of the film
Unfolding a tragic tale
Unfortunately so brutal and true
The narrative was flawless
The acting so natural....
About not just an ordinary man
A man of science and technology
A man who was a true patriot.
That he was at the end absolved
And his innocence proclaimed
I began to imagine if this had happened to me
But it won't for sure....
I am just another ordinary guy....
Just capable of sending Sivakasi rockets skyward.
I must salute the film maker
I must salute THE MAN
Rocketry......
A tale of delayed justice and it's mockery...
Politics and within it the treachery
A righteous man and his family almost loosing their sanity
Putting up with so much cruelty
God! What a pity!
And here I am, telling you all this in mundane poetry🙏
What an answer for Oscar.. hear hear madhavan sir. I am in Australia and it's the same here, they still call us the 3rd world country and no idea whats wrong but for them we are still in colonial era .. awsome inspiration from Nambi sir

Great interview. Hats off to Madhavan. And to Nambi sir, total respect to you!
Heartening to hear that there were good journalist those days as well. Media cannot play the game of courts or that of investing agencies. There is no way a scientist can be compensated for his career lost in Media trial and foul play of a few vested interests. Appreciate Nambis maturity in his response even after such a bad.media trial. He still do not harber ill-will.
I would urge everyone to watch this film in theatres.
It sucks for India that we got to know about all these so late in his life. He is now 80. Even 20 years ago, and we could have had so much of him.
Finally a film without songs. Probably soon I'll watch this movie.
The day Bollywood drop its songs, it'll rise. But maybe money matters!!!
Its not bollywoord 🙂
Nambi Narayanan needs more than Padma Bhushan, but we have lost a lot of time in ISRO , India lost a super man who could have done wonders in the field of space science, I am surprised that none from ISRO came out in support for him , and also the central government. India is a country where a foreign force can influence and stop a genius man from doing great innovations, and blocking us becoming a super power in Most fields , when we look at most CEO’s in the world , we mostly see Indians , and most Indians have fled India and working else were and excelling in each field they work shows , that India does not provide the right space and honour for them to work . I congratulate Madhavan for his efforts and courage to do such films , and the pain he has taken to understand the subject and bring out such a film. A first timer as a director plus acting is not a easy task for him to do . Hope and pray he gets an award for this film , and let not India loose another superman like Nambi Narayanan sir , I hope and pray under the present leadership India should show who Indians are to the world. Hope someone brings out a book about Nami Narayanan life Journey till date . Only from 2014 the whole world is looking at India’s talent, and respecting Indian when we are in a foreign soil .
Last scene of the movie comparing the situation of an ISRO scientist and a NASA scientist of same level forced me to cry🙏🙏🙏..Nambi sir we've failed as a country 😔😔by not giving you what you deserved..
Sekhar gupta Ji Thanks for Inviting nambi sir and madhavan sir on the print ❤.
Fantastic programme Print 🌷🌷🌷 I am immensely educated and moved by what I heard and learnt
I salute Sekhar Gupta a highly principled Journalist which is so rare today to boost the morale of Nambi Narayan through his interview along with Madavan. Now whole country watched the story of horrible treatment a great scientist met in our country. This is an eye opener for future generation. Madavan gets a chunk of credit for this.
@shekharguptaji i am very proud of you that you stood by Nambi sir in those trying times. My support and love will continue to be with you and this kind of journalism
Thank you so much Madhavan Sir,for bringing this gem of a person's story to us.thank you.
Great Direction
Nambi sir deserve more respect
Wow Madhavan confidence and verve from 28.3 to 30 .2 is the New India which many are not able to digest
I think the Indian audience deserves a solid movie on critical journalists like Shekhar Gupta sir. Possibly, it would act as a medicine in times like that of ours to inspire and popularize the real journalism among the masses!
Hi Pardeep,
Thank you for such kind words.
Thanks Mr Raghavan. You brought the issue and now people are talking. Where was the honest media all these years? Now the media is making their TRP on your work. I don’t want to blame anybody. If the media is really honest to its job. The culprits must be disclosed and if alive must pay for their crime and labeled as traitors at least. Till that done justice is not done to Dr Nambi Narayanan and others, also at the end to the science and the country.
This man has so much humor....hats off to you Nambi sir
Even after everything he is simple
Thank you for the interviewing 2 legends. Very educative and inspiring.
I see how simplicity can be so powerful
Thank you Shekhar for this interview.. A scientist that should have been celebrated, wasted by few men's stupid petty money mindedness, but grits his teeth to get his name cleared.. Such an honour to see this episode!!!
Hi Gopinath,
Thanks for tuning in and appreciating this episode of OTC.
As I watched this interview, I felt my print subscription is doubly worth.
Thanks print for their wonderful picks on current subjects.
I believe naming NAMBI to a ISRO's prominent facility would be a good commendation for nation's and ISRO's mistake in this so called SPY case.
Theprint deserves credit for bringing out this story out so strongly! Shame on corrupt Indian Bureaucrats - The curse of our Indian state!
Nambi sir Witty and Smart, unfortunate to not use his skills fully for ISRO's development
After watching this interview I came to realize how immaturely did the Malayalam media and the police department behaved. In fact it borders towards criminal action because one innocent person's life was made completely upside down. Both the Malayalam media, the state government and the police department must publicly apologize to Nambi Narayan sir. Also hats off R Madhavan who felt a real sense to make a film so the public knows about the truth and real justice is done.
Hats off to Madhavan for telling this amazing untold story ..... Big Thank you to Nambi sir all he has done for the country and a big Sorry for all the suffering he had to go through
Thank you for bringing this story once again apart from an earlier CTC episode that had watched as well. Bottom line our investigative agencies and judiciary needs a serious overhaul !!
I saw the movie 🍿As a Indian I salute and admire gratitude for your strength. Thank you Nambi Sir and Maddy for telling this story
We need public labs (chemical, electronic, robo, agri and so) set up in neighbourhoods like libraries. This helps kids to learn basics.
Request your policy makers to make it happen
please induct Nambi Sir into a university and ask him to publish a book on his works, please this will really help students & future generations of ISRO
thanks for this edition and great to see Namdi sir and super actor Madhavan ..hope to see many more such great stories being shown
Irony was that in the end Nambj sir went home on Activa , which really made me cry
So many emotions were brought back watching this interview, after having to watch the movie last week. This one is must watch in theatres, I have so much respect for Nambi sir, and Madhavan, to pick this as his passion project.
Naming sir, now a living legend, deserves much more honor from the people of India. Thanks to Mr Madhavan who introduced the legend to common people .
Kudos to Madhavan for his passion and conviction.
Namaste Shekar Sir, Thanks to you and your team for bringing Nambi Sir. It was an amazing interview. Thanks to Madhavan Sir for making a movie on the marvel. Thanks 🙏🏼
Hi Karthik,
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching.
Thanks THE PRINT for bringing the legend Nambi Narayanansir and Mr. Madhavan so that many could view it in youtube
This interview is very interesting….it’s old India questioning and new India answers
Thank you so much mansi mam and Shekhar sir for taking my question, finally my question is taken in off the cuff
Hi Aditya,
We often see you writing in with your questions. Thanks for being an ardent follower of ThePrint!
This the first off the cuff that I have watched in one sitting, without doing any other work.
I am an ISRO scientist and I work at Vikram Sarabhai Space Centre. I can vouch for the seriousness and love for science people have here. Sure a lot of people just do government job, but many just love their craft and absolutely love their country. It is sad that this happened to Nambi sir.
We appreciate all the hard work done by all of our scientists.
🇮🇳
isro scientist and ur name is “logics and trolls” 😂, sure mate
Bhai tumse umeed hai bhut bus mehnnat krte rho ❤
@@davidbilla776 bhai apan bhi insaan hi hain..
One of the best interview the print could had....
As a senior citizem i hung my head down because It was a shame on this country for what it did it to a great scientist like Nambi Sir.
Sir,
This is with reference to the various video programmes with rocketry team.
Kudos for the way it has been conducted the interview and brought out answers from a person with strong self respect as Sri Nambi Narayan and the ever energetic and smiling Mr. Madhavan .
The discussion and reports brought out many facts about how some people tried to slow down the economic and technological growth of our country their personal motives.
Our present Indian Government
is putting in all efforts to bring about positive changes to the society at large and is working hard towards placing India on the global map despite constraints of various types and degree from within. The Prime minister is toiling day in and day out to make India “aatmanirbhar” in every walk of life through techno economic study followed by its timely implementation.
In your interview with Mr. Nambi Narayan, a few of the questions that you asked and his responses along with some views expressed by Mr.Madhavan encouraged me to send this email.
The Indian technocrats are second to none. They are highly competitive , competent and sincere in their approach. But, sometimes a few for their own self importance, more power and publicity go to any extent . This happens in every field in India
Further as per Indian system , it’s easy for one to complain against another person with no facts and at no cost . But it’s the responsibility of the other to prove his innocence and he/ she has to spend a lifetime behind that. During that time it is observed that the vilified person is alienated in both his official and personal life leading to mental pressure on him as well as his family . Whatever may be the compensation given it shall not give him/ her his lost life period.
Being witnesses to such situations brings about fear in the minds of many youngsters and this in turn will be a deterrent for them in bringing out their inherent potential out in public life.
I hope your detailed interviews and presentations will bring an awakening in all youngsters to give their best to their country irrespective of the problem faced.

Thrilled watching the movie and the biopic, A living Legend who has fought the battle of life ,peoples generally say it's not a Rocket Science for any hardship . You have gone through it and lived it you are the" father of India ROCKET SCIENCE" . Thanks Maddy am always been your BIG fan more then that I loved you as a person who you are and by making this biopic and showing us who Nambi sir is and to the world what is India capable of and being proud Indian .Truly Honoured .!
I feel it is a good movie. Some people critical of Mr. Narayan's religious beliefs is preposterous.
Actually they r not preposterous, they r the one who has driven these type of agenda in Bollywood and media from decades.
@@AmitKumar-uj7mv
echo system of Lutyens and Bollywood mafia!
Good interview. One question remained not raised, why Mr. Nambi Narayanan was not allowed bu ISRO back to be part of cryogenic engine development program after he was acquitted. I don't think any scientist would really forget his subject, he may not be capable of leading multiple divisions but surely he could have contributed to the development of engine subsequently.
I think he is still an advisor in ISRO.
He said he couldn't because he spent 4 years fighting the case and his wife became mentally ill. And they had already filled his position so he would have to work under him, also due to the fack he was out of touch and disappointment how his own country treated him for his patriotism be didn't want to continue. Would u have joined again ur own government calls u a traitor for developing advanced rocket technology and they gave ur posting to someone else. They could have at least given back his posting and made the new guy one step below him with the same salary.
The stain on reputation, that took only recently to be cleared in court of law. 10 yrs of baseless accusations means ISRO would not risk hiring him even if he is a loyal and smart scientist.
Public Perception unfortunately trumps truth.
@@raikudla Yes the current C Engine is based om Nambi Natayanan's design
Really looking forward to watching this movie after seeing the interview and what makes it more poignant is that it’s a true story. Thank you Print for bringing this interview to us!
Thank you for making us meet such a great person. Listening to him was a spiritual experience.
The interview team seemed to be short in terms of preparation or ability or depth.
Thanks to print for this podcast and give us the understanding where India would be if this kind of leg pulling act would have happened 🙏🙏
Mr Nambi Narayananji is correct in his remarks; the damage was already done and now, everyone who not only wronged Mr Narayanaji but damaged the image of India ISRO should be brought to justice!
Excellent one, Team Print and Shekharji.
Guys every Indian should watch Rocketry..
I am fortunate to see this movie today
Dear Mr Nambi Sir, I am very sorry for what the nation put you through.that person who time and again showed his patriotism,has to face this..it is very disheartening and I can apologize with all my heart.Thanks a lot for your contributions to this country.I would like to let you know it is people like you,who inspire us,who motivate us and make us feel proud and lucky we are your fellow countrymen.Salute to you Sir.
It is so so sad that India didn't recognize its true patriot and a wonderful scientist and such fake cases were reported against him.
To know that SG sir reported this case of Nambi Sir truthfully makes all of us more respectful to him.
जब स्लमडॉग रिलीस हुई थी तभी एक और फ़िल्म आई थी ये मुम्बई मेरी जान तभी मैं पढ़ना और फ़िल्म देखना सीख रहा था , वो ऑस्कर से बढ़कर प्रदर्शन था आपका।👍
A great biopic indeed. Very little is known about this great son of India, to even the past generations, let alone the present. A great tribute to his patriotism by Madhavan who is known to be ambidexterous in filmcraft.
Nambi Sir is one who can be equaled to another great Rishi of our age Dr APJ Abdul Kalam Sir. Unfortunately, the best part of his prime service time has been marked by trials and tribulations . The stoicism exhibited by Nambi Sir in the face of the odds is unparalleled. The Director took tremendous care to establish the impeccable character of this great man in so minute a detail. This is evident from the fact that on two three occasions, when a female character approaches him on
a possible love or trap note, he would say esoterically referring to his love for his wife, hinting at his strong intent of disapproval, making the other retract. It's a tell-tale that he can never be honeytrapped which was a concocted allegation against him. It is good that at least now the Apex Court has ordered a full scale CBI investigation into the conspiracy. Let us hope that all those who were involved in the conspiracy either living or dead will be exposed.
Kudos to all, Nambi Narayanan, Madhavan, and team print for this interview.
Wonderful reply by Madhavan on OSCARs if you dont give them what they expect..... !!
