An excerpt of Rocketry: The Nambi Effect review by Bollywood Bubble read: “The film grips you in the first half but loses the plot and the essence of the film in the second half. It is an open-ended movie with no closure. It leaves you with so many questions and no answers which seems quite odd. Hence, I’m going with 3 stars because of R Madhavan’s performance and narrating the heartwrenching and untold story of Nambi.”
