Shakuntala Devi Movie Review - The Contradictory Retelling Of A Fiesty Woman And Her Amazing Legacy

“Nobody challenges me, I challenge myself”- Shakuntala Devi

The film Shakuntala Devi starring Vidya Balan premiered on Amazon Prime and finally, we have a female protagonist who is independent, tender, strong, and human. The film is a biopic and the Bollywood actress has always been known for her acting skills and she has come up with the film. 

The actress manages to present Shakuntala Devi in a way that she would probably have preferred to see on screen. As the film progresses, one feels turned to real-life - Shakunala's Devi, which one observes, and the actor who describes her character. The role is loosened up the picture by picture and over time you can feel how it moves from one scene to the next with ease.

The role of Shakuntala Devi is played by Vidya Balan, who embodies such characters so convincingly and so lovingly in real life. I fell in love with the vibrant and effusive Vidyas and the amazing justice she brings to her. Otherwise, the film is adorable to watch and should be given to those who know it. This is a film worth watching, as it successfully captures the spirit of the free spirit that it is and is a joy to watch. 

Menon, who has shot London, Paris, New York, and Waiting, has developed a film about an observer who never manages to get into Shakuntala Devi's head. Vidya Balan looks like Shakunala Deva in the film and it looks like a real-life representation of her character.  
She is well represented by the ambitions of the genius And she focuses on her daughter Anu's math, which is on the verge of breaking down because the emotions get lost in the narrative. The track is set in a corrupt world and Shakuntala Devi focuses on mathematics, not her daughters, whose emotions and emotions are briefly confused by the exhibition and the fact that she is lost. 

Shakuntala Devi's perfect number - Cruncher gives way to her imperfect mother, who is the chosen conflict of the film and spends most of her time solving it. Shakuntla Devi forgets the father-son relationship, which is so much more pleasant, and she explodes in anger at the lack of respect for her daughter. 

Shakuntala Devi repeats this cycle in her own life, and when the adult Anu says she wants to marry the boy Amit (Amitabh Bachchan), she bursts into tears when she says, "I want to marry you."  

Another point to consider is that Shakuntala, played with supreme confidence and conviction by Vidya Balan, is proving to be the kind of woman from whom Bollywood usually keeps its distance. Anu Menon, the actress of Vidya, makes us question our judgment of her, only to ask the question: "When do we forget that she too is a woman, a mother, and not only the mother of a child but also a human being? If it remains significant, it is because it is so unusual for a Hindi film to challenge the notion that women are naturally inclined to submit to motherhood. If Shakuntala Devi remains important to us as a film about women and their relationship to their children, it is because it questions women's motherhood.  

The film is directed by Anu Menon, who is also the director of VidYA, a documentary about the life of the late Shakuntala Devi, and serves as a reminder that she was a woman, not just a genius. It all starts with the fact that the film was inspired by true events, but does not claim to be a "documentary" or a biography of all the characters depicted in it. 

Shakuntala Devi is a drama about a mother-daughter relationship, and as the story progresses the idea comes alive, and therefore the climax of the research is that the story and the script themselves are. Her film is based on the work of director Anu Menon, who has allegedly had a close relationship with her late daughter and son-in-law Devis for about three years. She wrote the screenplay with her husband and had extensive conversations with both of them about the subject and their daughter. 

With this film, director Anu Menon has ensured that the audience never forgets that Shakuntala was a math genius. 

After always admiring Shakuntala Devi, this film gives us an insight into her life and achievements in mathematics and science. Before the film was released, Guinness World Records awarded her a certificate for the fastest human-computer from Guinness world records. Human-Computer, she was a world-class educator and a brilliant mathematician. Although she was described as a "human computer," she was no genius in numbers and poor at studying, but she excelled at her studies as the fastest woman in the world. 

I was browsing the internet and discovered this while watching the film "Shakuntala Devi: Human-Computer," a documentary about the life and achievements of the fastest human-computer in the world. I poured it on myself and discovered it when I watched the film "Shakuntla Devi, Human-Computer" from the director's office in Mumbai.
