No Joke! Aamir Khan's Off to Space!

Trust Bollywood star Aamir Khan to plunge into the unknown with full devotion in search of perfection! The actor who is currently busy essaying the role of real life wrestler Mahavir Singh Phogat from Haryana in his latest upcoming film Dangal is said to be all ready to explore the cosmos in his next adventure. No, we're not talking about Aamir Khan buying a ticket to SPACE on Richard Branson's Virgin Galactic! Rather, Aamir is all set to enact the life of the first Indian cosmonaut Rakesh Sharma.
Biopics are currently trending in Bollywood and their enormous success at the box office only makes them more bankable. And as we know, Aamir is forever up for challenges, so the idea of venturing it into SPACE that hasn't been explored in the industry so far, seems like the most challenging subject for his next film. As the actor prepares for the promotions of his filmDangal, a source revealed to Bollywood Life, "Aamir will play Rakesh Sharma in his next film. He is all set to move from playing a pehalwan to now going out to the space."
India's first man in space, cosmonaut Rakesh Sharma was an Indian Air Force pilot who became a cosmonaut, also the first Indian to be a part of space programme by India’s ISRO and Russia’s Soviet Intercosmos. During a television conference from space with Moscow officials and Indira Gandhi, the then Indian Prime Minister, Sharma had won the hearts of his countrymen by giving a patriotic response to Indira Gandhi’s question. When Sharma was asked how India looked from the space, Sharma had responded and said, “Saare Jahan Se Achcha” in response.
