Not easy probably for someone who is confident and as poised as Patel.įrom accounts, Ramanujan was a quiet, fastidious man – shy, introverted and deeply religious.Įven coming to Cambridge in 1914 as war descended on Europe would have been a massive deal. Even from the trailer, where he says “I have nothing – do you know what I’ve given up to be here” – a young wife, mother, traditional beliefs…. But this is a finely modulated performance and he does inhabit this real enigma of a man and a mathematician beautifully and effectively. Whether that’s because it’s Dev Patel and not another equally adept actor, you will have to judge for yourself. On a personal level, Dev Patel smashes it. It is an amazing story – a barely educated, poverty-stricken man from South India, defies convention to produce some of the most complex mathematical work ever undertaken and were it not for other men who believed in Ramanujan, we would all be much the poorer. On paper, it does look a tricky proposition and while the backing star cast certainly helps to give it weight and gravitas (in Jeremy Irons, Toby Jones, Stephen Fry) these are far from a guarantee that the film is any good. The fest will also have a package of classics to put the spotlight on the National Film Heritage Mission.Srinivasa Ramanujan (Dev Patel) in Chennai IFFI 2015 will feature a special section ‘World Cinema Restored Classics’ to highlight the idea of film restoration. Rai will be present to discuss films and the art of filmmaking with the audience.
