It's known that Madhavan will be seen as Nambi Narayanan, the famous scientist, in 'Rocketry: The Nambi Effect', a biopic. The film was supposed to be directed by the 'Savyasachi' actor in association with Ananth Mahadevan.

The news is that Ananth has quit the project due to some undisclosed reasons. With this, Madhavan has become the sole director of the biopic.

Nambi, a genius at ISRO, was framed in an espionage case in the 1990s and was arrested in his prime due to a conspiracy hatched by traitors. He was acquitted of charges and last year, the judiciary asked the Kerala Government to pay him damages of Rs. 50 lakh. The resolve of Nambi to see his enemies in the jail remains.

The biopic will hit the screens in Hindi, Tamil and Telugu this year.
