Arguably, no single event has changed the course of human history so much as the invention of the atomic bomb. And this going-to-be a legendary movie – Oppenheimer, directed by Christopher Nolan, talks about the same. What’s interesting is that the movie, even before its release, has managed to generate a massive buzz in India. The costliest tickets in India, each priced at ₹2,450 (without taxes), were sold out at Mumbai’s Phoenix Palladium, Lower Parel.
Even while clashing with another much-hyped release, Greta Gerwig’s Barbie, Oppenheimer has managed to sell over 2 lakh tickets in India, alone. Both movies are set to clash at the box-office on July 21. Taking cognisance of the same, Mumbai Police was quick enough to issue public safety guidelines on Instagram with a post captioned, “With such ‘Barbie actions, you’re signing up for Oppenheimer consequences”.
