Jim Sarbh “In these strange times the relevance of science, scientific research, and innovative, possibly life-saving technology becomes startlingly clear. ‘Rocket Boys’ is about Vikram Sarabhai and Homi Bhabha, icons in Indian scientific history. I hope their story continues to inspire generations of scientists, researchers, and innovators. I am looking forward to its premiere on SonyLIV.”
