As she continues to replicate the genius of Shakuntala Devi for a cinematic portrayal of her life, Vidya Balan is enjoying the perks afforded to her owing to the accomplishments of the math whiz. Balan, who is filming for Anu Menon's directorial venture in London, has received an invite from the Imperial College.

The London University was instrumental in furthering Devi's career, as she earned a place in the Guinness Book of World Records (1982) for multiplying two 13-digit numbers in 28 seconds, at this school.
