Nakuul Mehta in Ahmedabad for Flower Show and International Kite Festival 2026

Gujarat ki fiza mein iss baar sirf patang nahi udi, desh ka garv bhi aasman chhoo gaya. As the skies lit up for the International Kite Festival during Uttarayan, actor Nakuul Mehta attended the coveted festival - he celebrated by flying kites, interacted with fans & spoke about his upcoming series on JioHotstar, Space Gen: Chandrayaan. He celebrated not just the festival but the indomitable spirit of the scientists who transformed the setback of Chandrayaan-2 into the historic triumph of Chandrayaan-3. The show brings forward the emotional, human, and scientific journey behind India’s landmark lunar mission vividly to life for audiences across the nation.

Adding to the celebrations, Gujarat became a living canvas of India’s scientific legacy as Nakuul Mehta also visited the Flower show park, where a striking Chandrayaan rocket made entirely of flowers drew crowds and admiration. Adding to the grandeur of ambience, Nakuul invited his fans to be a part of the moment–clicking pictures, sharing excitement. The experience reflected the very heart of Space Gen: Chandrayaan, a story about setbacks, perseverance, and the unwavering determination that led to one of India’s proudest achievements, as the series gears up for its release on 23rd January on JioHotstar.

Nakuul Mehta shared, “Attending the Gujarat’s International Kite Festival during Uttarayan was emotional for me. I feel proud to bring here a show I am so incredibly proud of, it’s a surreal feeling. This isn’t just about a series. It’s about celebrating the spirit of India. Space Gen: Chandrayaan represents resilience: the courage to face failure, learn from it, and rise again stronger. Being here during a festival that celebrates new beginnings, felt incredibly powerful. I’m excited for audiences to experience the show on JioHotstar from 23rd January”

He further added that Space Gen: Chandrayaan goes beyond the usual space narrative. “The series focuses on the human side of history, the scientists who refused to give up after Chandrayaan-2 and worked relentlessly to make Chandrayaan-3 a success. It’s a story of grit, teamwork, and belief. I feel truly honoured to be part of a project that brings these unsung heroes and their journey to the forefront, and I can’t wait for audiences to experience this inspiring story when it premieres on JioHotstar.”

Highlighting the significance of the flower show Chandrayaan installation, Nakuul said, “Standing beside the Chandrayaan rocket made entirely of flowers was surreal. It beautifully symbolises how science and culture coexist in India. Interacting with fans there reminded me that this mission belongs to every Indian, it’s our collective achievement. I hope Space Gen: Chandrayaan inspires young minds to dream fearlessly and believe that even after setbacks, history can be written.”
