Storyline
A biographical drama chronicling ISRO scientist Nambi Narayanan's pioneering work in rocket propulsion technology, followed by his devastating entrapment in espionage charges. The narrative examines institutional paranoia and bureaucratic complications that destroyed a brilliant career despite later vindication. Rather than hagiography, it presents his vulnerabilities alongside genius, becoming examination of justice system failures and personal resilience.
