Hrithik Roshan is a hit with students

It was an exciting announcement for Hrithik Roshan’s fans when it was revealed that he will be playing a math teacher in his upcoming next, a biopic. The movie, that traces the real life journey of math genius Anand Kumar, is being filmed at real locations.

While the actor was shooting at Sambhar in Rajasthan and previously on the ghats of the river Ganga in Benaras, the actor was visited by a number of students. A source from the sets shares, “At all the locations that we have visited, the news of Hrithik filming in their vicinity has spread like wild fire. The fact that he will be playing the role of a teacher has become the talk of the town, drawing students in large numbers to the sets. It has been tough to manage the shoots in smaller towns as the crowds would turn up in large numbers. Coincidentally, most of them were either school or college students who were interested in meeting Hrithik.”

Over time, Hrithik has made a mark with a number of larger-than-life characters, roles which showcased his masochism. However with Super 30, Hrithik will be reaching the roots as he will be playing a math teacher on screen for the first time. The first look of the film was unveiled recently and showcased Hrithik donning a tanned look with a stubble, a stark contrast to his previous screen appearances.
