Sushant Singh Rajput is in news for quiet a some time now for his break-up with long time girlfriend Ankita Lokhande and his link-up with his 'Raabta' co-star Kriti Sanon. Post 'Raabta' Sushant will be seen in another film based on the life of an astronaut.

He will essay the role of an astronaut in Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan's directorial venture titled 'Chandamama Door Ke.' According to a source, when Sushant was asked about his new film, he said, "It promises to be an epic film that has not been attempted before and I'm really excited to be a part of it."

Director Sanjay Puran Singh Chauhan quoted, "Our story isn't based on anyone in particular but is inspired by multiple incidents that occurred in the past. It traces the journey of India's space programme and culminates with the country's first astronaut landing on the moon in 2017-18."

The film will revolve around a team of astronauts, who will be seeting out for a mission. The source also added, "While it is a fictional film based on true facts of India's space mission, we hope to match the standards of international movies. Along with special effects and VFX technicians from Hollywood, we're thoroughly prepared for our reel space mission."
