He added:

“In 2014, my situation was such that I was unable to hear from my right ear. I underwent a lot of treatments in Patna and it was after some tests that I came to know that 80-90 percent of the hearing ability of my right ear has been destroyed.”

“Then I checked into Ram Manohar Lohia Hospital, Delhi and the doctors performed rigorous investigation and did a number of tests. They then called me and told that I had no issues in my ear instead a tumor had been developed in the nerve which runs from ear to brain. And as soon I got to know this, as I lost consciousness.”

Talking about the movie he said:

“I made sure that till the time I am alive, my journey should be narrated in a right manner. So for that, I read the script 13 times so that nothing goes wrong.”

For those who don’t know, Super 30 is the story of a teacher that created history by preparing 30 underprivileged kids every year for IIT for free.
