Vidya Balan sports five distinct looks to represent the different phases of the life of her titular protagonist in the upcoming film Shakuntala Devi. Mhatre, who took care of the make-up, told IANS that he went through Shakuntala Devi's pictures and tried to match it with Vidya. In the film, based on the life of the late Shakuntala Devi, who is widely revered as the human computer for her innate ability to make complex mathematical calculations within seconds, Vidya flaunts long hair to a short bob in different phases. Shalaka Bhosle told IANS that the film essentially captures the different stages of Shakuntala Devi's life between 1940s and the 2000s.
