Oh boy, he looks handsome in this look. We are sure a lot of girls will be crushing over! Hrithik Roshan too posted on social media saying: "And the journey begins...#Super30"
Mathematician Anand also told in an interview: "I am happy that Hrithik will play me because he is the best choice for the role. His dedication towards his work and the kind of versatility he exhibits as an actor is very inspiring. Being a rooted and passionate person myself, I feel that he will bring an emotional depth to my life on screen."
According to Mumbai Mirror, Hrithik will be shooting in Bhopal and Patna in the coming months. The last schedule will be in Bihar's capital, in May. But guess what? Patna and other cities will be shot on the set that will be recreated in Mumbai.
A source informed the leading daily that director Vikas Bahl has already started working with the set designers to build three cities so that it can look real.
Hrithik had posted on social media when he started shooting of the film in Mumbai on January 22. He wrote, "On the auspicious day of Saraswati Puja and Basant Panchami, I am beginning my journey of Super 30 where I am playing a teacher for the first time. May the Goddess of learning bless this effort."
The film, which is based on Kumar's biography Super 30: Changing The World 30 Students at a Time, will narrate Anand's rise to fame as the founder of the Super 30 program. The film is co-produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, Madhu Mantena, and Shibasish Sarkar.
The maths wizard Anand Kumar took to his social media handle and posted: "Time keeps moving. It never stops. It doesn't tire. It keeps changing from one extreme to another, difficult to joy, but maintains its march taking everything in its stride. It can never be made captive or controlled, as it has its own pace. It goes on and on, changing direction as it wills. Just imagine, how eight years elapsed since famous script writer Sanjeev Dutta first drew the sketch of the script for the film on my life. This is how time flies, at times without giving any inkling of its pace. Just a year from now on November 23, 2018, the film will be released. I have full faith on my team. The way the entire team is engrossed in the project, working day in and day out, I am confident time will always remember this film."
The source further told Mirror that Siddharth Anand's film featuring Hrithik and Tiger Shroff will now go on the floors after August because Hrithik will spend all his time focusing on Anand Kumar biopic. Hrithik will also take his annual summer holiday break with kids, Hridhaan and Hrehaan, in June and July, before he starts shooting with Tiger Shroff. YRF had announced that Hrithik-Tiger-Vaani Kapoor's film will release on October 2, 2019.
