Patna: Super 30 founder Anand Kumar will share his experiences with the making of the movie that revolves round his pioneering initiative in helping students from deprived class crack IIT examination, at the famed Cambridge University later this month.

"It's hilarious moment for me as I had a dream of studying at Cambridge, but could not make it due to poor financial condition of the family," the acclaimed mathematician told PTI on Sunday.

He will speak at the UK-Asia summit organized at Cambridge University from June 24-28, 2019, dwelling on his inspiring two-decade long journey that worked as an inspiration of the film, starring Hrithik Roshan. The film is set to be released on July 12.

Kumar's brother Pranav Kumar, who looks after the entire management of Super 30, will accompany him.

Programme organizer senior scientist Shah Kamranur Rahman said that it was a sheer coincidence that in his young days, Anand, whose innovative Super 30 programme mentors students from the underprivileged sections of the society for admission in IITs, had a dream to study in the same Cambridge University he would speak at.
