Mission Mangal new trailer: Entertainment, Entertainment and Entertainment

Mission Mangal stars Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Sonakshi Sinha, Taapsee Pannu, Sharman Joshi, Kirti Kulhari and Nithya Menen. The makers had released the trailer of the film a couple of weeks ago. It was quite interesting and surely made us eager to watch the film.

Now, the makers have released a new trailer of the movie which is high on entertainment.  Akshay Kumar took to Twitter to share the trailer. He tweeted, “Fall down 7 times, get up eight! Here’s a story of never giving up! #MissionMangalNewTrailer Is here! bit.ly/MMNewTrailer @taapsee @SonakshiSinha @vidya_balan @TheSharmanJoshi @menennithya @IamKirtiKulhari @Jaganshakti @foxstarhindi #CapeOfGoodFilms #HopeProductions.”


Mission Mangal is based on ISRO’s Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM) also known as Mangalyaan. The movie will mainly focus on the women who had worked for the mission. The new trailer is very entertaining, and Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan steal the show with their acts. Even Sonakshi Sinha, Taapsee Pannu, and Sharman Joshi leave a mark.

Well, Mission Mangal could have been a very serious film about how Mars Orbiter Mission took place. However, the makers have taken an entertaining route to tell the story. The new trailer has many funny scenes; it has the proper amount of drama and even emotions.

While talking about the film, Akshay had earlier said, “We didn’t have that much knowledge about Mars Orbiter Mission before we started working on the film. But slowly we came to know a lot, and it is because of Jagan (director Jagan Shakti). Mangalyaan cost only Rs 450 crores while NASA spent more than Rs 6000 crore for American Maven orbiter. My film 2.0 had a budget of 500 crore and this was less than that, so we are so proud.”

Directed by Jagan Shakti, Mission Mangal is slated to hit the screens on 15th August 2019. It will be clashing with John Abraham starrer Batla House.
