3. Shakuntala Devi

Shakuntala Devi, the biopic on world-famous mathematician is a unique tale of the woman behind the fame. Told from the eyes of Shakuntala Devi’s daughter, the movie promises an objective retelling of Shakuntala Devi’s life as a mathematician, author, public speaker and mother. Vidya Balan aces her portrayal of the larger-than-life woman, complete with her humour, swag and quirks. Unlike many biopics that unfortunately become a white-washed ‘good things only’ version of the person long gone, Shakuntala Devi bites into the insecurities of the character. This one’s for Vidya Balan, Shakuntala Devi and Math fans.
