Dev Patel, who made his acting debut with ‘Slumdog Millionaire’, will be next seen in ‘The Man Who Knew Infinity’, a film about the life and struggles of mathematical genius Srinivasa Ramanujan and Sonam, who saw the trailer of the film recently, seems quite eager to watch the much-acclaimed film.

Apart from throwing light on Ramanujan’s life, ‘The Man Who Knew Infinity’ also explores the friendship between Ramanujan and Professor GH Hardy (Jeremy Irons), a British mathematician, who helps and mentors the young genius from South India. Apart from Dev Patel, who plays the main lead, the film will also mark the acting debut of Devika Bhise, a trained classical dancer, who will play Janaki, the supportive wife of S. Ramanujan. Devika conducted a lot of research on Janaki to get into the skin of her character and also had extensive discussions with author Robert Kanigel, the author of the book, which inspired the film.
