MUMBAI: This December, National Award winning actor, Konkona Sen Sharma will be seen in the National Geographic Channel’s My Brilliant Brain. She will be part of the special Indian film, which will be aired along with the international line-up.

My Brilliant Brain is a series that makes viewers re-think the abilities of the human brain as it looks at a group of remarkable people and poses questions about the origins of genius: are these extraordinary abilities genetic, developed or acquired by accident?
