The film made on the human-computer Shakuntala Devi is ready for release. Shakuntala Devi used to do the multiplication in seconds, but you will hardly know which is the calculation for which the Guinness Book of World Records gave her the title of fastest calculating person among humans. The official title of this record of Shakuntala Devi made in 1980 has now been given to her daughter Anupama Banerjee.

On 18 June 1980 at London's Imperial College, Shakuntala Devi had to prove how fast she is in mathematics. She was given two numerically selected 13-digit numbers, the product of which she had given 100 percent correct in just 28 seconds. Her daughter Anupama is now able to take the paper document of her mother's achievement and she is very happy about it. She says "Receiving the honour in your hands of your mother feels different. Only my mother could do this."

Vidya Balan, who plays Shakuntala in the film Shakuntala Devi, says, "We had a lot of meetings with Anupama while shooting in London and then I came to know that there is no certificate of such a great achievement of Shakuntala Devi. Then we all tried for this together and I am thrilled thinking that Anupama can always keep this with herself.
