The movie is based on the biography of Shakuntala Devi.
The only point of giving it 4 stars is that I thought movie is based on Her Maths tricks and how she became one of the greatest mathematicians. But movies is on the other angle of Mother & daughter.
Movie is based on how we pursue women from our own angle as mother, Sister, or wife, and not as a whole that even she can have different angles.
This movie talks about how kids want to be different from their parents overcoming their failure from our angle, defeat, omission, negligence, and much more. But in making when one becomes parent, how he or she find herself on the other side and the history repeats.
Vidya Balan fits in every character's shoes. She nailed it once again.
But Sanya Malhotra's perfect performance will amuse you and she has portrayed her character to such perfection that you belive it to be true.
Amit Sadh has small screen time but with nice character graph.
And didnt know that the movie is directed by Lola Kutty aka Anu Menon who has done her fabulous work.
Should watch Movie...
