The 'Badhaai Ho' actor shared the news on her Instagram stories with a message that says, "Super excited to start this new journey", tagging her co-actor Vidya and director Anuj Menon.

The 'Dirty Picture' star shared the teaser of the flick which is based on Indian writer and mental calculator, Shakuntala Devi, earlier this month.

The teaser amazed the audiences as it gave them a hard time trying to spot a difference between the Vidya's on-screen character and the maths wizard's real self!

'Shakuntala Devi - Human Computer' is produced by Sony Pictures Network Productions and Vikram Malhotra. The film is slated to hit the theatres during summer 2020.

Shakuntala's ability to make incredibly swift calculations on her fingertips was first discovered at the age of 5 when she solved a math problem for 18-year-old students. Although she never received any formal education her love for numbers won her several awards.
