Trivia
Even though the film had the same cast across the Hindi and Tamil versions with 2 different stars (Shah Rukh Khan in Hindi & Suriya in Tamil), the climaxes in both the Hindi and Tamil versions are slightly different when the real Nambi Narayanan conveys his final thoughts to the anchor. In the Hindi climax, Nambi Narayanan's dialogue is voiced over by Madhavan himself despite Narayanan's hindi lip-sync being correct. However in the Tamil climax, Narayanan speaks the same dialogue for himself in Tamil.

Another notable difference is that in the Hindi version, once Narayanan ends the interview with "Jai Hind" (translation: Victory to India) Shah Rukh Khan conveys the same in return while wiping away his tears. In the Tamil version though, Suriya conveys his silence while being astonished by Narayanan's last words.

Goofs
During the Vikas engine's test run, the ISRO logo is revealed on its body. The ISRO logo was adopted in 2002 while the test takes place in 1985.

Quotes
Nambi Narayanan: Insane, yes. But impossible, no.

Amazing & touching movie

Must watch for all to learn 'Never Give Up' attitude of Shri Nambi Narayan , scientist of ISRO who fought in extreme circumstances like an ideal Bollywood hero in real life. Extremely well acted, directed and produced by R Madhavan to bring this real life story.
