Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The real Anand Kumar was initially skeptical of Hrithik's casting but approved after seeing his dedication to learning the Bihari dialect.
The film sparked debate about 'poverty porn' in Bollywood biopics — critics noted that the real Super 30 program focuses on JEE coaching, not the dramatic flourishes shown here.
