Hrithik Roshan's last release Kaabil didn't live upto expectations the box office. The film, despite being critically acclaimed fell short of its expectations. But now, Hrithik has moved on and signed his next film.

There were several speculations about the films he was in talks for. There was Sajid Nadiadwala's Force where he was supposed to play a pilot, then the Kabir Khan film that was almost announced and even Karan Malhotra's next. But none of these plans materialised. Duggu has instead signed his next with Vikas Bahl.

This film is a biopic - a first for Hrithik. He will play mathematician Anand Kumar in the film. Kumar is the genius brain behind the Super 30 programme for underprivileged kids who want to crack the IIT. Now, that's the extraordinary tale of an ordinary man and Hrithik makes an interesting choice for the part.
