The release date for Shakuntala Devi has been decided. And it will release in exactly 148 days from now. Kya hua? Calculation nahi kar paa rahe ho? Kya laga? Shakuntala Devi hoon, aise hi bata dungi? Chalo, 1 more try. Which is a number 8, and when added with the month and year numbers, again adds up to 8, she is heard saying. Finally, assuming that most of us are failing at it, she gives it away. The film, starring Vidya in the titular role, is slated to come out on 8th May 2020. Helmed by Anu Menon, Shakuntala Devi also stars Sanya Malhotra , Jisshu Sengupta and Amit Sadh in other pivotal roles.
