Earlier this month Sushant Singh Rajput was seen preparing for his role in Chanda Mama Door Ke at NASA. Now it’s R Madhavan’s turn to make preparations for his role in the film at the American Space Station. The actor is also said to have taken lessons of space walk drills and experienced zero gravity as part of his extensive training schedule. 

Touted to be the first space adventure film of India, Chanda Mama Door Ke is slated for a Republic day release next year, and is inspired by Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. Directed by Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan and produced by Viki Rajani, the film also features Nawazuddin Siddique.

Hollywood technicians who worked on films like Apollo 13 and The Martian are also said to have been roped in. Reportedly, Shraddha Kapoor is also going to play a part and Aamir Khan will be lending his voice for the film.
