Hrithik Roshan, who will play the mathematical genius Anand Kumar, wants to be as authentic as possible while essaying his role. Reliable sources close to the project tell us that that Hrithik will spend considerable time in Anand Kumar’s workplace and home in Patna.
A source says, “Hrithik will take time off from his other commitments to play Anand Kumar. He wants to visit Anand in Patna and observe him from close quarters. This will include visits to his home, where Hrithik will spend time with Anand’s wife and children. Hrithik will also learn to solve actual theorems from Anand, so he looks authentic while teaching and writing in the classroom,” says the source. Interestingly the Dhoom actor will also hire a voice coach to train him in the Bihari sing-song speech.
Anand confirms, “I speak in a particular way. Hrithik, who is most metropolitan in his bearing and language, will unlearn many of his sophisticated manners in the quest to find my personality in his own. We are definitely spending time together.”
