It was widely reported that Shirish Kunder's film Joker is going to be screened for the renowned Indo-American astronaut Sunita Williams. However, his wife, filmmaker Farah Khan, has clarified that the show was not just meant for the astronaut.

Farah Khan said, "This was a promotional strategy because Akshay Kumar is a NASA scientist in the film; it's about aliens and space ships. They thought we could get it relayed on that station, but there is so much red tape involved in that and it takes a long period of asking for it and all. But I never took Sunita Williams' name."

The film, also starring Sonakshi Sinha, is set to release on August 31.
