Such a course was broadcasted in March 2016 under MOOC (NPTEL- IV) and that background will be enough to follow that course. It is kind of a threshold level compilation of lectures to Differential Geometry on which there is hardly any standard course at under graduate level in most universities. (from nptel.ac.in)
