Hrithik Roshan who will play mathematician Anand Kumar in ‘Super 30’ is currently busy shooting for the film. The mathematician was all praises for the actor as he expressed his pleasure and also was surprised as well and appreciated the first look of the actor as well and even stated that the first look is very similar and matched the look during his university days. The film will be directed by Vikas Bahl.


Anand Kumar said, “I was delighted and pleasantly surprised to see the first look wherein Hrithik sports a rugged, bearded look. I had been told that at present the shooting was being done of my college days. I took out an old photograph of mine, of the time when I was studying at Patna University. I found the resemblance to be uncanny.”


He further added, “I showed my photograph to my family members and asked them to compare it with Hrithik’s and their observation was similar to mine. I posted both photographs on my facebook page and it became an instant hit, getting thousands of likes, shares, and comments. Similar was the response on Twitter.”


Talking about the film Anand said, “The movie is at present being shot in Varanasi, where I have spent a considerable part of my early life. I have been told that the crew will visit Patna too for shooting. Looking at the hard work and dedication involved in the project, I am confident it will turn out to be a biopic that does full justice to the theme and the ambience. Hrithik deserves kudos for mustering the courage to appear in a deglamorised look. He has also hired a speech trainer from Bhagalpur to get the Bihari accent right. Hats off to the star and the entire unit.”


Hrithik Roshan had posted a picture of himself on his twitter and wrote, “And the journey begins”.
