  • First Look: Hrithik Roshan As Super 30's Anand Kumar. Twitter Is Impressed

Known for his 'Greek God' looks, actor Hrithik Roshan has embraced a unique get-up with a heavy beard and unkempt hair for his new film "Super 30".

 

Hrithik has started shooting the film, a biopic on Anand Kumar who is a mathematics wizard and teaches 30 meritorious and talented candidates each year from economically backward sections for the entrance examination for the Indian Institute of Technology.

 

The actor, upbeat about playing a man from Bihar, shared his first look from the film via Twitter on Tuesday.

 

"And the journey begins. 'Super 30'," he captioned the image.

 
 

Backed by Reliance Entertainment and Phantom Films and directed by Vikas Bahl, the film is slated to release in November this year.

 

Its shoot went on floors in Varanasi on Tuesday, Shibasish Sarkar, Chief Operation Officer, Reliance Entertainment, shared on Twitter.

 

A fan shared Hrithik's Super 30 look juxtaposed with Anand Kumar's old picture, which shows the resemblance is quite uncanny:

 
 

Last month, Hrithik tweeted that he started filming Super 30 on the "auspicious day of Saraswati Puja and Basant Panchami." He wrote: "I am beginning my journey of Super 30 where I am playing a teacher for the first time."
