Super-30 founder mathematician Anand Kumar says the script for the film based on the success of 'Super 30' has been written.
Anand said he even met the director Anurag Basu, who is making the film, in Patna twice for the movie.
"The storyline would be based on my life, foundation of Super 30 as well as the success of the 331 under-privileged students of my institute from remote areas of Bihar, who cracked the IIT joint entrance examination and went on to be employed in top posts across the world," Kumar said.
Anand was in the steel city to take part in XLRI's flagship annual business summit 'Ensemble 2013'.
Kumar said Basu called him two years ago and expressed his desire to make the film on Super 30.
Super-30 came into the limelight a decade ago after all its 30 under-privileged students cracked the IIT entrance examination.
Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachhan had also enacted the character of Anand in the film 'Arakshan'.
