Shakuntala Devi

This is not what you call a biopic. Bollywood doesn't know how to make a biopic rather they show same old drama, over acting, their own fictitious story. They did same Mission Mangal. Watch it only see mother daughter relationship

To make matters worse, it is not yet a proper biopic in India.When the spice is poured into the biopic, it goes to a place where it is no longer biopic.A person's personal life grows from a good working life.

The mother-daughter relationship has been given much more importance.Shakuntala Devi's huge achievement is covered even if it is a little bit.The last scene seems more dramatic than the big one.Did you need 3 songs in the film?

Makeup and costume are truly admirable.Vidya Balan is just as impeccable as before.But the place of Jishu and Amit has not been given much less?

Such a farce! In the process of showing Shakuntala Devi's prowess they got Vidya Balan to overact quite a bit. The movie should have been a different kind of drama in the league of A Beautiful Mind, but it ended being a masala drama.

Shakuntala Devi.Anu Menon.2020

Based on the life journey of profoundly known Human computer aka Shakuntala Devi, the film tries to fit in her 84 glorious years in 120 minutes screen time. The film stabs to touch major life milestones of her life from her genius mathematics career to conflict with her own daughter and to her dilemma in life to her flawed rapport with her husband.

But the film fails to bring out her psyche, mental vows and keeps spinning around her analogous achievements throughout. Many of her vital scenes are mere caricaturish portrayal to make it look breezy and to reflect her sense of humor with no depth in it. No doubt Balan tries hard with her accents, body language, hiatuses but still the film lacks in the clarity of thought.

Boring and not done justice to the biopic !i dint even feel like completing the movie .
