“The Man Who Knew Infinity” is a biography and a movie on the life of Ramanujan.

Srinivasa Ramanujan was born on 22 December 1887 in Erode. In 1903, he secured a scholarship to the University of Madras but lost it after failing in other subjects. In 1911, he published his first paper in the Journal of the Indian Mathematical Society. His correspondence with G. H. Hardy led to a special scholarship from the University of Madras and support from Trinity College, Cambridge. He was elected to the Royal Society in 1918 and became the first Indian Fellow of Trinity College, Cambridge. Ramanujan compiled remarkable mathematical results, including infinite series for π, and introduced innovative ideas that influenced modern mathematics.
The number 1729, known as the Ramanujan number, is the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways. In mathematics, the Fields Medal is awarded every four years to mathematicians under 40 by the International Mathematical Union, while the Abel Prize is awarded annually by the King of Norway; notably, the Nobel Prize does not include a mathematics category.

Chandrasekhar is best known for his work on the structure and evolution of stars. He formulated the Chandrasekhar limit, which defines the maximum mass of a stable white dwarf star.
His contributions to astrophysics earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1983.

An Indian physicist, Bose, is renowned for his work in quantum mechanics.
His collaboration with Albert Einstein led to the development of the Bose-Einstein statistics and the concept of Bose-Einstein condensate.

C.V. Raman is famous for his groundbreaking work on the scattering of light, which led to the discovery of the Raman effect. This phenomenon is the change in the wavelength of light when it is deflected by molecules. He received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1930 for this discovery.
