'I felt proud and got incredibly moved': Karan Johar is all praise for Akshay Kumar and Vidya Balan starrer Mission Mangal

Jagan Shakti's Mission Mangal starring Akshay Kumar, Vidya Balan, Sonakshi Sinha, Taapsee Pannu, Nithya Menen and Kirti Kulhari had a grand opening on August 15. The multi-starrer traces the journey of the team led by Akshay achieving a seemingly impossible task of reaching Mars in India’s maiden attempt, making it the only country in the world to set this record. The film received an amazing response on its first day and filmmaker Karan Johar is all heart for this one.

KJo posted on Instagram the poster of Mission Mangal and went on to praise the film and its team. He wrote, "I had such a satisfying movie experience watching #missionmangal ! I felt proud and got incredibly moved at the end! Laced with humour this is a big idea and a superbly produced, directed and performed film....I am officially a @balanvidya fan! She is possibly the most relatable actor we have ....identifiable and so effortless with her every beat! She is vulnerable and strong in every beat of the film! The ladies do such an amazing job! All of them make a place for themselves in this box office winner! Kudos to @taapsee @aslisona @iamkirtikulhari#nityamenon and a special mention to @sharmanjoshi for his endearing act! And to @sanjaykapoor2500 for his portrayal of a nagging husband. The silent force of this film is the incredible @akshaykumar ! Letting the ladies take centre stage and still emerging as the backbone of this film! His choice of amazing subjects and his love affair with the box office continues! Congratulations to @foxstarhindi#balki and director #jaganshakti for this LOVELY film!"
