Bollywood megastar Hrithik Roshan, is currently ready for
his next movie Super 30, in which he will be essaying the role of a mathematics
teacher. The movie is based on the life of mathematician Anand Kumar, who began
the Super 30 programme in Patna back in 2002. The educational programme selects
30 brilliant candidates each year from economically underprivileged sections of
the society and coaches them for IIT entrance exams.
In a latest media chat, Anand Kumar spoke at length about
working with Hrithik. He revealed, “The makers and Hrithik studied my character
well. They made a video of 150 hours of me. It had clips of me teaching and the
way I talk to my family members. Hrithik used that video as a case study to
understand me. He also called me six-seven times to Mumbai to have discussions
with me. One time, he was so engrossed in talking to me that he almost walked
out of his house bare feet while escorting me out. One of his staff members
came running to remind him that he had forgotten to wear his slippers.”
A lot of research and study went into making the movie and
Hrithik along with Vikas worked very hard for the same. Talking about it, Anand
revealed, “They have done justice to my story. Vikas ji used to go to villages
to meet kids and would talk to people to give more depth to the script. He
would go to remote areas where there would be no roads. You cannot travel in
vehicles there, so he would walk to reach such places and talk to people. The
film is the result of this hard work.”
Super 30 is scheduled to release on 12 July.
