"Shakuntala Devi - Human Computer", the biopic on the math genius is set to hit the screens on May 8 next year, actor Vidya Balan announced on Thursday.
The actor took to social media to share the news.
"Get ready to be enamoured by her wit, charm & of course, genius! Watch the video to know when #ShakuntalaDevi is coming to theatres near you!" Vidya captioned the clip revealing the date of release.
Directed by Anu Menon, the film also features Sanya Malhotra and Jisshu Sengupta.
