Predicting an opening of around Rs 12 crore, film trade analyst Girish Johar had earlier told Hindustan Times, “The buzz is very good ever since the launch of the trailer. Quality of content matters a lot these days and Hrithik is coming after two years. Unlike his earlier films which have action, song and dance, it is not a commercial mass-entertainer but surely promises quality content.”

Celebrities reacted to Hrithik Roshan’s Super 30. Directed by Vikas Bahl, the film is based on Indian mathematician Anand Kumar. Actor Hrithik Roshan plays the mathematician from Bihar. Anand Kumar is the founder of the Super 30 educational program

The film got rave reviews from Bollywood celebrities such as Farah Khan, Karan Johar and many others. Gujarat chief minister Vijay Rupani also watched the film and shared his reaction on Twitter. He wrote, “Super 30 is a film that showcases the life of struggle with all its reality. @teacheranand is an epitome of a simple teacher inspiring and becoming a ray of hope for the needy. @iHrithik has done admirable role to capture the essence of Anand’s character. Best wishes.”

The HT review of the film said, “When you exaggerate the extraordinary, it looks ordinary. Mathematics whiz and educator Anand Kumar has led a remarkable life, coaching hundreds of underprivileged children past the rigors of the Indian Institute of Technology entrance exams. His story deserves attention, but director Vikas Bahl confoundingly embellishes it into typical filmi fare in Super 30. For some reason, Kumar’s actual triumph wasn’t enough — therefore the filmmakers added clichéd adversity.”
