Suhasini, Abbas, Bhama, and Abhinay Vaddi in Ramanujan (2014)

'Ramanujan' is a historical biopic set in early 20th century British India and England, and revolves around the life and times of the mathematical prodigy, Srinivasa Ramanujan. Directed by the award-winning filmmaker Gnana Rajasekaran and with an international cast and crew, 'Ramanujan' is a cross-border venture. Considered one of the most romantic stories in the history of mathematics, Ramanujan, a college dropout from a poor family in South India, made extraordinary mathematical discoveries in isolation. He wrote a strange letter filled with theorems and formulas to Prof. Hardy of Trinity College, Cambridge, who immediately identified his genius and invited him to England to conduct further research. 'Ramanujan' chronicles the genius' journey across continents and cultures in search of recognition.

The only Good thing is that it is about Ramanujan

Little slow spaced and monotone but meticulous music .. a 1970s style movie making.. while Man who knew infinity shows him as one of the greatest mathematician that he was, this is more about how he strived to be one.. this would remind you of Malgudi Days..

Classic biography

It'such an honor for india that such a great mathematician is born here. And what a cinematography is done in this movie, i say excellent. It's engaged you from start to end.

I'm sure you will love it.( I'm from india 😊)

A good attempt on the life of Ramanujan which could've been a cult classic

The acting of lead actors are laudable but its the screenplay which is lagging. Many parts of the movie is not chained well which actually creates some confusion. It all lies in how a story is presented on screen. Only in this part, did the director fails but succeeds in bringing the much needed biopic on the genius child of mathematics - Srinivasan Ramanujan.

It is a very good attempt and must watch for all those who wish to know about this genius from Kumbakonam.

Music is a great plus in this movie. No unwanted stuffs are delivered.

Great journey to say! Although flawed, it looks beautiful!
