In an earlier interview with PTI, Vidya Balan speaking about her upcoming film said—

“I am extremely excited to play the ‘human computer’ Shakuntala Devi on the big screen. She was truly someone who embraced her individuality, had a strong feminist voice and braved many a naysayer to reach the pinnacle of success.

She also added—

But what truly fascinates me is that you wouldn’t normally associate a fun person with math…and she completely turns that perception on its head.

The movie also stars Sanya Malhotra, Jisshu Sengupta, Amit Sadh among others.
