Madhavan as mathematician in a Hollywood film!

Bollywood reports confirm that Madhavan is set to play the mathematician Srinivasa Ramanujan in a Hollywood film.

Titled ‘The Man Who Knew Infinity’, and based on the book of the same name by Robert Kanigel, the film will be directed by Matt Brown.

What’s even more fascinating is that Colin Firth, of ‘The King`s Speech’ fame, is being approached to play the other vital role in the film, that of English mathematician GH Hardy.

Confirming the news, a source said, “Maddy is quite excited about playing Ramanujan. He also visited Kumbakonam where Ramanujan hails from.”

Well, that sounds exciting!
