Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan are set to reunite after 11 years for R Balki directed space film of Mangalyaan. Also, it was reported that Balki was in search of two more actresses for the venture and we guess he has found them. If reports are to be believed, then Sonakshi Sinha and Taapsee Pannu will be joining the cast of the film.

“After Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan and Nimrat Kaur were signed for the film, Balki sir has been busy finalizing the rest of the cast. Now, with Sonakshi Sinha and Taapsee Pannu joining the film, Balki is looking at going on floors with the project in January next year,” a leading daily  from India quoted its sources as saying. The film is based on one of the most successful Indian space ventures, the Mars Orbiter Mission. Though yet untitled, the said space film which will be India’s first ever in this genre is being produced by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures and Hope Productions that is headed by R Balki. As for the storyline, Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan are not paired opposite each other, they will both be seen playing astro scientists in the film.
