Producer Ekta Kapoor’s Alt Balaji has collaborated with Zee5 and has dropped the teaser of the upcoming web series, MOM - Mission Over Mars. It comes a day before the release of the film, Mission Mangal which is also based on India’s Mars Orbiter Mission (MOM).
Mission Over Mars is a fictional adaptation of the real story behind India’s journey to Mars. The teaser features prominent faces from the television industry including Sakshi Tanwar, Mona Singh, Nidhi Singh and Palomi Ghosh. They play the women scientists who worked on India’s Mars mission and look slightly similar to Mission Mangal’s team, starring Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Sonakshi Sinha, Taapsee Pannu, Nithya Menen and Kirti Kulhari.
It goes with the tagline, “Kuch udaanon ke liye pankh nahi, jazbe ki zarurat hoti hai (Some flights don’t require wings but passion).” It will be streaming on both Alt Balaji and Zee5.
The trailer of the show will be released on August 16. It has been directed by Vinay Waikul of The Test Case fame. The makers had earlier released two posters of the show, each featuring Mona Singh and Sakshi Tanwar.
The makers have also shared a disclaimer with the teaser. It read: Mission Over Mars is a fictional adaptation of the real-life heroes at ISRO who worked on Mangalyaan.
