A film based on the life of Indian mathematician aka Human Computer Shakuntala Devi, saw versatile actress Vidya Balan stepping into her shoes and leaving the audience once again mesmerized with her performance. The movie gave a miss to the theatrical release and was premiered on the OTT platform Amazon Prime Video due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. But did any of us ever think of how much Vidya might have scored in Mathematics in her educational career. Guess what the actress has revealed it in her latest Instagram post.

And we must agree with her, though she was not a genius like Shakuntala Devi, she was definitely good. The actress gave a glimpse of her 10th-grade mark sheet and pointed out the marks she scored in Mathematics in her board exams.  The actress had secured 126 marks in Maths out of 150 as per the old board examination rules. If one takes a closer look at her mark sheet, the actress was quite a bright student as she scored almost 82% in the year 1994 which is quite commendable.  

Vidya Balan wrote in her caption, “I wasn’t a ‘genius’ but I was definitely good :P Wow, not bad haan? Tell me what your maths marks were in the comments below and watch #ShakuntalaDeviOnPrime NOW, @primevideoin”
