New Delhi : When it comes to solving Mathematics problems, many people are left scratching their heads. A similar attempt is done by the makers of the upcoming movie 'Shakuntala Devi' to announce the release date of the upcoming movie that stars Vidya Balan in the lead role.

Vidya Balan aka Shakuntala Devi (also known as the Human-Computer) announced the release date by asking some tricky math questions to figure out the release date.

While sharing the video on social media, she wrote, "Get ready to be enamoured by her wit, charm & of course, genius! Watch the video to know when #ShakuntalaDevi is coming to theatres near you!"


In the beginning, Vidya Balan says the movie will release in exactly after 148 days. The actress then adds "Kya hua? Calculation nahin kar pa rahe ho? Kya laga, Shakuntala Devi hoon to aisi hi bata dungi? Chalo 1 more try. It is releasing on a date which is a number 8 and when added with the month and year number, again adds up to 8."

"Accha wait. Phir se maths class wali feeling aayi na, koi nahn, aapki language mein batati hoon. Wahi jo aaj kal sab use kar rahe hain: Emojis," she gives the second hint.

Towards the end she announces the release date with emojis, a trend on social media these days. She later explains, "5+3 = 8 May 2020"

"Yes guys, Shakuntala Devi is releasing on May 8, 2020. See you in theatres the," Vidya concludes the video.
