Akshay
Says
He
Gets
Inspired
By
Films
Like
Mission
Mangal
The
actor
who
plays
a
scientist
in
the
film
was
quoted
as
saying,
"I
get
inspired
when
a
film
like
this
happens
in
front
of
me.
What
a
brilliant
story
this
is,
inspired
by
a
real
incident."
The
Actor
Reveals
Why
He
Came
On
Board
For
The
Film
"Few
people
know
NASA
sent
a
satellite
to
Mars
for
close
to
Rs
6,000
crore,
and
ISRO
did
it
in
only
Rs
450
crore.
Just
see
the
difference...
A
little
common
sense,
and
we
saved
a
lot
of
money.
Can
you
believe
this
story
has
not
been
told
yet?
I
want
to
tell
it,
that's
why
I
came
on
board," said
Akshay.
The
Film
Belongs
To
These
Five
Girls
He
further
added,
"This
is
a
work
of
17-18,000
engineers
and
scientists
at
ISRO.
While
listening
to
so
many
real
stories
of
women
scientists,
I
found
it
amazing
how
they
managed
their
homes
while
being
so
incredible
at
work.
Through
this
film,
I
want
to
tell
them
that
they're
great.
This
movie
belongs
to
these
five
girls,
played
by
Vidya
Balan,
Sonakshi
Sinha,
Taapsee
Pannu,
Kirti
Kulhari
and
Nithya
Menon.
This
is
their
movie."
Celebrating
Women
Power
Meanwhile,
Akshay
dropped
a
new
still
from
the
film
and
captioned
it
as,
"Be
it
making
a
home
or
launching
a
successful
space
mission,
women
know
it
all!
Celebrating
the
power
of
women
scientists
:
#MissionMangal
is
their
story."
