Isha Koppikar's 'Rocketship' Earns Dual Festival Selections

Isha Koppikar's upcoming film 'Rocketship' has achieved a significant milestone, being officially selected for two prominent international film festivals - the Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival (DPIFF) 2026 and the Mokkho International Film Festival 2025.

The Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Festival is regarded as one of India's most respected platforms for recognizing cinematic talent, both domestic and global. The inclusion of 'Rocketship' in its lineup marks an important achievement for the team, especially since the film was made in collaboration with students from Whistling Woods International, the film school founded by Subhash Ghai.

Koppikar's decision to work with the academy's students stemmed from her desire to support emerging voices in cinema. The collaboration allowed young filmmakers to gain hands-on experience while working on a professional feature film - an initiative that reflects her intent to contribute to the growth of new talent in the industry.

The film's trailer, released earlier this month, has already drawn attention for its emotional depth and compelling premise. 'Rocketship' tells the story of the unbreakable bond between a mother and daughter, exploring themes of strength, resilience, and aspiration through a heartfelt narrative.
