I wish the dialogues while in India were done in Tamil with English subtitles, that makes it a bit more realistic... But tbh I think I like the film, I'm only a few minutes into it
The actors in this are STELLAR! I was overcome with tears twice. Once as Hardy ends his speech and you see the many emotions he goes through as he, in his own way, comes to accept God. The other incredibly well done bit of excellent film-making, is the moment where Hardy pulls Ramanujan into him to prolong that final hug. Such a brief moment!
This was one of the most beautiful movies and stories I have seen. This story proves that racism only slows down and lessens the potential we could have reached all of us humans as a whole. I have not known anything about this man and I am glad I came across this. Thank you.
You think racism doesn't abide very comfortably in Asian countries and generally all non-European countries for that matter ? You really need to get out more, open your eyes and try to decrease the level of your delusion. I am not saying that your idea is wrong, I am enlightening you to the realities of this world. I could lay out empirical facts and data, but you can do your own research on the topic of racism (not published by some WOKE looney left professor) if you could be bothered. Or, alternatively, you could just carry on with your ignorance and delusion.

Ramanujan lived a year back in Madras before he succumbed to his tuberculosis. The movie was fully captivating of the struggles this genius faced at Cambridge, despite the efforts of Hardy to train his mind to accept the scholarly apparatus of rigorous proofs to vouchsafe his intuition. I prefer to have had in the movie a fuller account of that last year of his life in Madras with his wife and mother with the celebration of his life and death a tribute to the man as man and not merely as the mathematical genius that he was. Nonetheless, a splendid movie with superb acting on the part of Irons and Patel.
I had seen this movie earlier, but is prompted to write a comment now, it really was a beauty, just like , the Oppenheimer movie in 2023, which won 7 Oscars.There are many people in India who don't even know that this man existed, and was invited to Trinity college. Ramanujan worked only as a clerk in India yet was called to Trinity. This movie is a tribute to his genius.
Einstein was a Swiss Patent Clerk... The scientific papers he produced in 1905 rocketed him to stardom... Sometimes genius is better served outside the sterile thought bubbles of academia
I am not a mathematician, but I can understand the beauty and perfection of mathematics. I had never heard of any of these men except Bertrand Russell, but I am so glad I encountered this movie. There are so many undertones to add depth to this movie than simply the mathematical discoveries. May we all learn that the only limitations we have are those we impose upon ourselves.
Definitely true! Have u ever seen fractals? Their mathematical equations made of real and non real numbers that when graphed, represents the dimensions of Nature. Some beautiful videos have been made of the Julia sets and Mandelbrot. "Mathematicians for Lovers" was one video that came out in the 90's.
Hey, thanks for uploading this my brother. I saw a clip as a RUclips short yesterday and became interested in the story. I've always believed that despite British occupation and rule, the Indian Civilisation may very well have been the higher of the two. I also believe that, given the cyclical nature of time/history, and the great irony with which it often appears to work, one day, INDIA will be the Superpower (it's well on its way), and the circumstances will exist that require it to rule Britain - or at least occupy us - under humanitarian grounds or the like. I really enjoyed this film. It made a genuinely refreshing change from all the violence and/or superhero nonsense of the last 15 years or so. Can anyone recommend anything similar in content or tone? [Edited for grammar, and after seeing the whole film]
From ancient times to the present, Indians are known for their remarkable abilities in the field of mathematics, and now of course in digital technology. This movie, along with a star studied cast, brings out this fact perfectly. So sad that Ramanujan died so young.
Out of 3000 results, Ramanujan made less than 10 errors with no formal training ! It’s hard to imagine anybody will better him now or in the future. What an absolutely tragic ending 😢 A star that shines brightest shines shortest.RIP.
Someone better is coming.. they are learning. Ramanujan a devout of his mother Goddess, claimed these equations came to him. Question is why ? Because he had temple walls, and even the floor had chalk all over it. Equations and derivations across the temple. Now, just like every Hindu temple there is a morning service and general rituals as routine. People who lived there back then, they didn't delete his writings, everyone left it there and everyone tried not step on written equations. The secret is having barely enough and imagination power. His imagination power was very high.. an Analogue of Einstein if I may say so.. Both infact most brilliant minds existed because their imagination was nurtured by all around, never judged or frowned upon by all around. They say necessity is the mother of invention. I say will is the path leading to success.. if you like what you are doing, you don't need validation.. someone collaborates with you, the more the best.. we get fast results that way. There is more to Ramanujan than his physical work, there's very clear indications of meta-physical work in Maths and Physics. As people who like seeing the society benefit from such people, regardless of country, religion whatever.. etc.. This is for everyone including the betterment of life of even Animals. This is Dharmic Karma.. or in English "absolutely devout hardwork for making your imagination find form and use in the material world. That's every good person ever.

The worst thing is that an American Author wrote this story about Ramanujan and his work is more appreciated more outside India. This is very sadenning for us Indians that many don't know him 😮💨😮💨
Yes you are right you know why because we treat more the useless fellows often called celebrity in our india and just forget to follow and appreciate such genius.This is not today it is a long culture of our people. Finally great respect for the greatest math genius.
I figure Ramanujan was one of the 4-5 greatest persons that India has produced in the past 1000 years, but we are too busy worshipping Rajnikanth, Amitabh, Sachin, Virat.
What an absolute gem of a movie 🥹 I cried so hard whilst watching it it touched my heart and felt so close to this geniuses personality I he may have lived a short amount of time but he left us his legacy which is still studied by scientists till now ❤
The government of India released a postage Stamp on Srinivasa Ramanujan. As i child i found that stamp in my family's philatical album and thereafter learnt about the great mathematician. It's not all true that none remembered him. Many Newspapers published perodical articles on the mathematical genius.
I was born in Calcutta and learnt Indian history in my Catholic convent in Cuttack😊 I learnt about this brilliant mathemation. Government schools didn't teach anything.
Such a beautiful film lighting the beauty of genius & showing modern audiences the depths of privilege & racism of the early 20th century in Britain. Dev Patel had me moved to tears with his humility in this role. An absolute gem of a film.
We certainly get in our own way with our hubris… knowledge is powerful … all knowledge exists it’s there to be discovered - rediscovered … but we are slow to encouraging and being open minded …we employ a vast array of constraints in various ways. We crave knowledge yet we are afraid of it
Happens everyday unfortunately very few are appreciated when alive in this life and die in poverty because people refuse to see the value in one another
And how many great minds were plucked from complete obscurity & given a one in a million opportunity to prove themselves at the best university in the world under the gaze of Isaac Newton. NOWHERE else had any appreciation of Ramanujan's raw talent. Everyone has to fight for recognition - even other geniuses like Einstein. Nobody would know who Ramanujan was or any of his work - had it not been for brilliant minds at Cambridge to recognise his talents then patiently teach him how to make the most of his talents. Where else would he get this ? He was privileged to go to Cambridge - as are students from all around the world to this day.
It was nice to see this again. Sometimes, people are born with a gift that needs no proof and just is. Its the rest of the world that is hung up on how they did it for sciences proof. Imagine asking a medium to prove how they saw something no one could see. Sometimes superhero gifts are given, and the person just knows what they know. Simple😊
There are those of us who thrive on intuition, while others thrive on religion, through practical training, or through the pedagogy of education, and difficult years of thought. No way is wrong or right. The way we understand things are just different languages of mind. Different ways of developing skills and creativity. And if we understood that of one another, perhaps the prejudices that so often divide us, even within ourselves, might stop causing so much damage among the human family that we are all part of.
Yes.. That's is the fact. "No man has the monopoly on Knowledge" It is universal. That Knowledge itself is God. One of the great verses in the Vedas is; "Pragnjanam Brahma" which menans "Knowledge is God" ❤❤❤
@@harilalmn Thank you. It seems clear that we cannot know more than we are given to know. Do we discover knowledge or is it revealed? It seems that we manipulate and create as only result of what of what we have been given to know. It is frightening to see that self-destruction is probably at the top of the list.
@@vicentepineda1860 Very true. Your words reminded me of what Sri Paramahamsa Yogananda says in Autobiography of a Yogi; "War and crime never pay. The billions of dollars that went up in the smoke of explosive nothingness would have been sufficient to have made a new world, one almost free from disease and completely free from poverty. Not an earth of fear, chaos, famine, pestilence, the danse macabre, but one broad land of peace, of prosperity, and of widening knowledge."
Superb movie. I have watched a lot of movies (approaching infinity) and this is one of the best! The acting between the two prime characters was just amazing. The scenes seemed to just flow and develop in a very logical way.
Truly, a beautiful film. My field of knowledge doesn’t include mathematics at that level, but I was struck by how dogged humans are to hang onto what we know-especially in the sciences and accademia-and how resistant human nature is against brilliance, particularly when it comes from outside our accepted norms. One remarkable paraphrased quote that struck me was when he said mathematical formulas didn’t make sense to him if he didn’t hear them as the voice of God. Inspiration was not something learned men of those times gave much weight to and, yet, it’s through his inspired formulas that men and women down the time line have gained insights to mysteries such as dark holes and quantum mechanics. What a remarkable Soul.
What a brilliant mind...to have all that knowledge wowwww I cannot even understand how he reached infinity that's genius truly blessings to him from above.
Amazing intuition & also had the unstoppable drive to publish against threats from a gang of academic bullies & thugs. Always need a good friend or two.
That is what was so heartbreaking about this brilliant man's difficult struggle to get through those barbaric men's thick skulls. He died because of the horrible English diet (I have some of that lineage) and that damp weather plus smoke did not help.
You mentioned the word intuition. Other people call it a gift of God... But it realy puzzeled me how all these amazing thoughts came into his head. I cant even understand the most simple part of it.. my brain would burn.....yes who am I? But still...I know intuition ....but this?? Im just curious.....
This is my second time watching this movie in same channel after couple of years and I will watch it again after couple of years.❤❤❤..Such a remarkable story !
Such films of individuals need to be made. To have a accurate portrayal Of one's life Which eventually The benefits others And their understanding . Life is but a vapor. It must have been an extreme sacrifice for him To go to England.
'It cant be done and especially not by you'. The BEST doctors , physicians and technologists originated jn India and are still treasures of the modern world.
Your movie is a noteworthy tribute to one of great souls. Your movie truly moved me to visit the temple and seek blessings of Goddess "Namagiri Thayar" and Lord "Narsimha Swamy" at Namakkal. Thank you
This movie is brilliant in that it brought a man of brilliant intellect in mathematics but also a spiritual & morally centered & humble man . Unfortunately because he came from a different culture and had a different skin color the was mistreated . When we start treating others as human beings for their differences & embrace then instead of fearing them and showing hatred towards them. Thanks 21:13 for making Ramajuans work open to the world. Great actors. Dev Patel & Jeremy Irons brought this story alive & maybe we can take something away from this movie on we should treat others as we would want to be treated. Very touching and heartbreaking at times. Regardless of his short life his work will live on . ❤ 18:29
My grandfather was Ramanujan’s roommate at the Victoria Hostel in Triplicane Madras - both rode bicycles to work by Parry’s Corner - my grandfather to the High Court and Ramanujan to Madras Port. One inaccuracy the movie begins with - Brahmins never wore lungis - it was always white dhotis.
Thank you Soo much for this wonderful historical movie. We are blessed at times with higher souls that guide humanity onwards. Brave, courageous and loving souls: thank you ❤
i cried 4 times during this. i wanna write alot about Ramanujan but its too long . TO ME HES ONE OF THE BESTEST GREATEST MATHEMATICIAN IVE EVER SEEN. WE WILL SEE HIM ONE DAY WHEN JESUS COME😥💔💔💝💝💝❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
To the limited extent I studied Mathematics, I agree with the Chinese model's take on Mathematics, which is to say, engaging in and doing Mathematics is an art form; indeed, indispensable to the successful understanding of and applications in and to the sciences and that of life's mechanisms, both natural and divine for which Ramanujan proved a rarefied conduit. Just like Littlewood suggested, he was in Isaac Newton's class. I would venture even farther out and say, Srinivasa Ramanujan's works perhaps exceeded that of Newton.
To appreciate a man who belonged to India is to appreciate the mind of man even it be of another country that is to applaud education over all. I thank you for it.
His flesh died at 32. His spirit lives on, he proved it, he knew it, God the creator of the Universe is infinite and we in His image, the spirit within us is infinite as well. ♾
Its so sad that Tesla and Ramanujan never met , both came from the same source and lived in a same time frame, Tesla could have helped him greatly and took him in the US..
And then what? Going to the US somehow would have helped him more? Are you disregarding Hardy’s efforts? One of the USA worshipper aren’t you, quit it.
@@kasajizo8963 Genius intellect transcends dimensions and you’re stuck on professions, for this whole India that couldn’t figure out the genius in him what more would you expect. Two respectable men always are a perfect match for each other.
@@jeannebye8153Chill out I think you're letting your Bias shine through a little bit too much. If Edison in him would have met up. We couldn't know what would happen. However, what often happens when 2 geniuses meet up, especially 2 that share the same character which they did. It usually ends in greatness or tragedy. But never ends in blandness
The desert Southwest might have helped his tuberculosis. There were a lot of people that went out there for that reason. There are a lot of people we wish had met ,that’s true.
Nobody could understand his language until he met up with like-minded mathematicians. Although SME (subject matter experts) in their own right, this was beyond my comprehension. The end lecture at 1:32:05 sums up Ramanujan's brilliance as to his God-given talent. ❤
Like, Einstein, Ramanujan was in pursuit of understanding the mind of God. He was like a savant. It is interesting to note that this brilliant man who originated from a primarily non-Christian country, India, was invited to a place called Trinity College, alluding to the Holy Trinity of Christian origin, by an atheist Professor, whom I believe ultimately believed in God. Ramanujan's knowledge was a gift from God, and I believe him. Thank you for posting. 🕆
@@jeanmarie4462 if he was a Savant, he would have realised that Buddhism and Daoism understood all this at a much deeper level.....they know that the secret of the Universe lies in the humility to know nothing, space, emptiness......just read the poetry of Rumi and you too can get an insight into what us true seers perceive.....
India is buried deep in dirty politics, selfish motives and petty issues and top of all .....cheap entertainment..... such genius is a man of universe...who came to this land from infinity. Respectful salutations!!

Thank you, Boss.🤓🤓💯💯 I loved this so much.🥲🥲🥰🥰
I saw about ramanujan in a short of youtube and now I am totally fascinated by him. Such brilliants are born in India but we still appreciate foreigners and its a true fact that most of the indians don't even know about this god of mathematics who belong to us.
Im astounded by the need to prove anything in this life. Is accepting a gift so difficult? So if I prove to you my gift then you will say I have achieved something? How does that superceed a gift from God? Amazing movie from a simple mind.
I loved this movie. What an amazing person, brilliant yet humble. A loving son, a loyal husband, and a true, faithful friend. Exceptional acting to tell this story.
I wonder if people watching this movie and who are not familiar with the study of mathematics truly understand, why Ramanujan's papers weren't ready to be published.
@@saileshrachapudi8486no proofs Simple as that See if you can prove one theorem Congrats Change dimensions universes but your statement will still stand

He was ahead of times, and without any formal education, that's why. He himself was very puzzled by his knowledge and said it comes to him from some greater being. He was simply writing down what he was being sent and he needed himself to understand it. He was extremely poor and unable to afford even books. But with a help from someone he got the books and made a progress in understanding the knowledge he possessed. Many mathematicians have said that the solutions to their problems comes to them via their dreams.
Excellent movie. I cannot imagine havimg such a mind. And a kind and grntle soul. A great loss to the eorld. Did he get to reunite with his wife nefore je doed?

Thank you. Glad you found the movie interesting too.
Thank you everyone. Glad you found the movie interesting too.
Yes.. That's is the fact.
"No man has the monopoly on Knowledge"
It is universal. That Knowledge itself is God. One of the great verses in the Vedas is;
"Pragnjanam Brahma"
which menans "Knowledge is God"
❤❤❤
@@harilalmn Thank you. It seems clear that we cannot know more than we are given to know. Do we discover knowledge or is it revealed? It seems that we manipulate and create as only result of what of what we have been given to know. It is frightening to see that self-destruction is probably at the top of the list.

Very true. Your words reminded me of what Sri Paramahamsa Yogananda says in Autobiography of a Yogi;
"War and crime never pay. The billions of dollars that went up in the smoke of explosive nothingness would have been sufficient to have made a new world, one almost free from disease and completely free from poverty. Not an earth of fear, chaos, famine, pestilence, the danse macabre, but one broad land of peace, of prosperity, and of widening knowledge."
What a beautiful and heartfelt movie. A must watch.
What a tear jerker. Great movie, a great life. Gave me chills.
Superb movie. I have watched a lot of movies (approaching infinity) and this is one of the best! The acting between the two prime characters was just amazing. The scenes seemed to just flow and develop in a very logical way.
Truly, a beautiful film. My field of knowledge doesn’t include mathematics at that level, but I was struck by how dogged humans are to hang onto what we know-especially in the sciences and accademia-and how resistant human nature is against brilliance, particularly when it comes from outside our accepted norms. One remarkable paraphrased quote that struck me was when he said mathematical formulas didn’t make sense to him if he didn’t hear them as the voice of God. Inspiration was not something learned men of those times gave much weight to and, yet, it’s through his inspired formulas that men and women down the time line have gained insights to mysteries such as dark holes and quantum mechanics. What a remarkable Soul.
I have a lump in my throat writing this, what an amazing man, a hero a God, WOW just WOW
What a brilliant mind...to have all that knowledge wowwww I cannot even understand how he reached infinity that's genius truly blessings to him from above.
Amazing intuition & also had the unstoppable drive to publish against threats from a gang of academic bullies & thugs. Always need a good friend or two.
That is what was so heartbreaking about this brilliant man's difficult struggle to get through those barbaric men's thick
skulls. He died because of the horrible English diet (I have some of that lineage) and that damp weather plus smoke did not help.
You mentioned the word intuition. Other people call it a gift of God... But it realy puzzeled me how all these amazing thoughts came into his head. I cant even understand the most simple part of it.. my brain would burn.....yes who am I? But still...I know intuition ....but this?? Im just curious.....
@@gaialina4786 Makes you wonder how many people like this never got recognised, just treated as madmen.
This is my second time watching this movie in same channel after couple of years and I will watch it again after couple of years.❤❤❤..Such a remarkable story !
I’ve read the book by Robert Kanigel. Thank you for posting this wonderful adaptation to the book/real life Ramanujan 🪷 A truly amazing man.
Have now watched 5 times. A wonderful movie about a genius
Aaah... a well chosen prime number of viewings 😊
Such films of individuals need to be made. To have a accurate portrayal Of one's life Which eventually The benefits others And their understanding . Life is but a vapor. It must have been an extreme sacrifice for him To go to England.
Sublime movie!! Worth the watch ! Thoroughly enjoyed it… heck I loved it!! ❤
'It cant be done and especially not by you'. The BEST doctors , physicians and technologists originated jn India and are still treasures of the modern world.
What an arrogant statement.
Outstanding movie ! Subtitles will multiply the audience. Merci et bravo ! (Québec, Canada)
Great for Dev Patel to have portrayed a Great mathematician and FRS, RAMANUJAN
I adore this movie and have watched many times ~ just beyond my words. Thank you ~
Your movie is a noteworthy tribute to one of great souls. Your movie truly moved me to visit the temple and seek blessings of Goddess "Namagiri Thayar" and Lord "Narsimha Swamy" at Namakkal. Thank you
One of the greatest film ever.
This movie is brilliant in that it brought a man of brilliant intellect in mathematics but also a spiritual & morally centered & humble man . Unfortunately because he came from a different culture and had a different skin color the was mistreated . When we start treating others as human beings for their differences & embrace then instead of fearing them and showing hatred towards them. Thanks 21:13 for making Ramajuans work open to the world. Great actors. Dev Patel & Jeremy Irons brought this story alive & maybe we can take something away from this movie on we should treat others as we would want to be treated. Very touching and heartbreaking at times. Regardless of his short life his work will live on . ❤ 18:29
Agree
My grandfather was Ramanujan’s roommate at the Victoria Hostel in Triplicane Madras - both rode bicycles to work by Parry’s Corner - my grandfather to the High Court and Ramanujan to Madras Port. One inaccuracy the movie begins with - Brahmins never wore lungis - it was always white dhotis.
Thank you Soo much for this wonderful historical movie. We are blessed at times with higher souls that guide humanity onwards.
Brave, courageous and loving souls: thank you ❤
i cried 4 times during this. i wanna write alot about Ramanujan but its too long . TO ME HES ONE OF THE BESTEST GREATEST MATHEMATICIAN IVE EVER SEEN. WE WILL SEE HIM ONE DAY WHEN JESUS COME😥💔💔💝💝💝❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
32:03 Another Legend P.C. Mahalanobis. And I am watching this Masterpiece on PC Mahalanobis' Birth Anniversary ❤
Yeee! That dude is so important yet so overlooked.
@@psibarpsi Yea Bro
To the limited extent I studied Mathematics, I agree with the Chinese model's take on Mathematics, which is to say, engaging in and doing Mathematics is an art form; indeed, indispensable to the successful understanding of and applications in and to the sciences and that of life's mechanisms, both natural and divine for which Ramanujan proved a rarefied conduit. Just like Littlewood suggested, he was in Isaac Newton's class. I would venture even farther out and say, Srinivasa Ramanujan's works perhaps exceeded that of Newton.
What a beautiful movie. I am a Pakistani but admire the remarkable mind this gentleman had.
To appreciate a man who belonged to India is to appreciate the mind of man even it be of another country that is to applaud education over all. I thank you for it.
dude, you might be pakistani, but we're all one..
Gosh, what your nationality can have to do with admiring a beautiful mind? There's no connection between these two. ☹️
What a moving story. If not for TB, he would have done so much for mathematics. This great man deserves more accolades.
Exceptional movie of an exceptional man❤️
what a movie. i literally cried watching this movie.
Ouainnnnn Ouainnnnn 😢
A true gem . thanks for posting.
Heartbreaking, Memorable, and so poignant.
A moving portrait of a brilliant mind!!
I read this book years ago, and it has remained one of my benchmarks reads. Beautifully written.
Absolutely wonderful. I am a better soul after that infusion of light and information. Thanks for this
So beautiful and uplifting in these turbulent times…thank you …..
RIP Srinivasa Ramanujan (December 22, 1887 - April 26, 1920), aged 32
You will be remembered as a legend.
May he R.I.P!! To a genuine and unique True Genius!!
Truely worth watching. So beautiful and excellent movie. Enjoyed a lot. Truely inspirational. One can learn good lesson from this movie.
His flesh died at 32. His spirit lives on, he proved it, he knew it, God the creator of the Universe is infinite and we in His image, the spirit within us is infinite as well. ♾
@Justice-qx5vt it is more the fear of losing power and control rather than ignorance
@@patriciacole8773 bruh
Amen 🙏
Its so sad that Tesla and Ramanujan never met , both came from the same source and lived in a same time frame, Tesla could have helped him greatly and took him in the US..
And then what?
Going to the US somehow would have helped him more?
Are you disregarding Hardy’s efforts?
One of the USA worshipper aren’t you, quit it.
How would Tesla have helped him? He was an engineer, not a mathematician
@@kasajizo8963 Genius intellect transcends dimensions and you’re stuck on professions, for this whole India that couldn’t figure out the genius in him what more would you expect. Two respectable men always are a perfect match for each other.
@@jeannebye8153Chill out I think you're letting your Bias shine through a little bit too much. If Edison in him would have met up. We couldn't know what would happen. However, what often happens when 2 geniuses meet up, especially 2 that share the same character which they did. It usually ends in greatness or tragedy. But never ends in blandness
The desert Southwest might have helped his tuberculosis. There were a lot of people that went out there for that reason. There are a lot of people we wish had met ,that’s true.
Nobody could understand his language until he met up with like-minded mathematicians. Although SME (subject matter experts) in their own right, this was beyond my comprehension. The end lecture at 1:32:05 sums up Ramanujan's brilliance as to his God-given talent. ❤
I love movies like this. They have substance and inspire, which is something we need more of in today's society.
Like, Einstein, Ramanujan was in pursuit of understanding the mind of God. He was like a savant. It is interesting to note that this brilliant man who originated from a primarily non-Christian country, India, was invited to a place called Trinity College, alluding to the Holy Trinity of Christian origin, by an atheist Professor, whom I believe ultimately believed in God. Ramanujan's knowledge was a gift from God, and I believe him. Thank you for posting. 🕆
@@patriciacole8773 bruh
@@jeanmarie4462 if he was a Savant, he would have realised that Buddhism and Daoism understood all this at a much deeper level.....they know that the secret of the Universe lies in the humility to know nothing, space, emptiness......just read the poetry of Rumi and you too can get an insight into what us true seers perceive.....
Superb movie. I watched a lot of different movies and frequently and this is up there. The acting between the two prime characters was just amazing.
A most beautiful Being full with shining Divine Light…..many thanks 🙏👼🙏
Yes!I was thinking about this movie lately…And here it is!❤
India is buried deep in dirty politics, selfish motives and petty issues and top of all .....cheap entertainment.....
such genius is a man of universe...who came to this land from infinity. Respectful salutations!!
Thank you for this upload. What a brilliant movie, what a brilliant man
Thank you.
Such an amazing short life and a gift of the universe.
May the creator fill your sails with partitions for the rest of time.....
Thank you for posting this.
I was so moved to tears.❤
If I wanna watch a movie, I end up watching this.
I thank myself for connecting to this MASTERPIECE
This movie really gave me motivation and i will be surely be a great physicist and contribute in physics like him which he did for Mathematics ❤
same brother!
Same
I’ve found the unification theory. It’s so scary it has to be forgotten. Humans would kill themselves if they harness the power of unification.
@@riksarkar4343 maybe the movie could be shown in schools to inspire the pupils? India needs to develop and protect it's richness of soul, of culture, its values in a world that is increasingly superficial and tik tok oriented.
Best wishes for you..❤
Ego bubble popped in the classroom.💡💡
Via self education, you have a clear line of communication with the Supreme Intelligence. You have the highest honors & you were chosen.☺️☺️
How can one know discrimination when they’ve never walked in the shoes of the discriminated? Remove the ego, pride, pedigree, & need for social status; add understanding, compassion, & humility. Entitlement & greed looks terrible on you.🫵🫵
I Love Math. Thank you, Boss.🤓🤓💯💯
I loved this so much.🥲🥲🥰🥰
Such great words...
I saw about ramanujan in a short of youtube and now I am totally fascinated by him.
Such brilliants are born in India but we still appreciate foreigners and its a true fact that most of the indians don't even know about this god of mathematics who belong to us.
So true..
Same here, I'm totally fascinated by him. A god of mathematics. Much love and respect from America.
i hate your tarnishing his legacy by calling him a god!!!
A pleasant and easy going movie about a very gifted man. Thankyou.
Brilliant movie or story rather about a brilliant man. Leaves us wondering what could have been if he had lived into his prime.
What an absolutely beautiful film!
Glad to have had the opportunity to watch this, and learn.. about someone fundamentally important whom I did not previously know. Grateful to you.
Amazing story! I have discovered many from india possess great minds.
21:55 is an epic scene...son touching mother feet.. followed by wife touching husband feet ..core Indian tradition ❤
Insightful and deeply moving.
the masterpiece ❤❤
of sir S.Ramanujan 🛐🛐🙏
A great movie .. kept an intriguing interest throughout and completely inspiring .
A magnific Jeremy Irons and an outstanding Toby Jones
And….???Dev Patel!!!
Im astounded by the need to prove anything in this life. Is accepting a gift so difficult? So if I prove to you my gift then you will say I have achieved something? How does that superceed a gift from God? Amazing movie from a simple mind.
How do you know it's a gift from God until you verify that it yields truth? Otherwise you've no basis for knowing if it's a gift... or gibberish.
I loved this movie. What an amazing person, brilliant yet humble. A loving son, a loyal husband, and a true, faithful friend. Exceptional acting to tell this story.
I wonder if people watching this movie and who are not familiar with the study of mathematics truly understand, why Ramanujan's papers weren't ready to be published.
Why wouldn’t they publish ?
@@saileshrachapudi8486no proofs
Simple as that
See if you can prove one theorem
Congrats
Change dimensions universes but your statement will still stand
Now, they can be proved with AI.
@agalgonzalez ai is nothing , they conquer knowledge what they have been provided, they can't prove or else Ai was made before you were born and by now many theorem should have been proved but it's not
He was ahead of times, and without any formal education, that's why.
He himself was very puzzled by his knowledge and said it comes to him from some greater being.
He was simply writing down what he was being sent and he needed himself to understand it.
He was extremely poor and unable to afford even books.
But with a help from someone he got the books and made a progress in understanding the knowledge he possessed.
Many mathematicians have said that the solutions to their problems comes to them via their dreams.
I always thought there was something really special about 1759 and now I finally know why
I think you mean 1729
Delightful movie and it’s true!!
What an exilent choice to cast Dev patel, i couldn't think of anyone else potraying Ramanujan.
Excellent movie. I cannot imagine havimg such a mind. And a kind and grntle soul. A great loss to the eorld. Did he get to reunite with his wife nefore je doed?
Yes,he spent the last one year of his life with his wife and mother before he died
