The film follows the extraordinary life of Srinivasa Ramanujan, a self-taught mathematician from colonial India, whose genius transcended the boundaries of formal education. Raised in poverty, Ramanujan’s mathematical discoveries are largely unrecognized in India until he sends his work to the renowned British mathematician G.H. Hardy at Cambridge University. Impressed by Ramanujan’s talent, Hardy invites him to England, where the two form an unlikely yet brilliant partnership. As Ramanujan struggles with the harsh English climate, racial prejudices, and cultural differences, his groundbreaking theories in number theory begin to earn international recognition. Amidst personal and academic challenges, Ramanujan’s journey becomes a story of intellectual passion, perseverance, and the pursuit of truth. Will Ramanujan’s genius be acknowledged on the global stage? Can he overcome the personal and professional obstacles in his path? These questions are answered as the film explores the power of mathematics and the spirit of human potential.
