Actor Cillian Murphy, who will play the titular character in the upcoming biopic 'Oppenheimer', said he read the Bhagavad Gita to prepare for his role.
In one of his interviews, the 'Peaky Blinders' actor said the Hindu scripture was very inspiring, especially since Oppenheimer relied on it for consolation.
American nuclear physicist J Robert Oppenheimer, who was the director of the Los Alamos Laboratory during World War 2, and is often credited as the 'father of the atomic bomb' for his role in the Manhattan Project, learned Sanskrit at Berkley.
Oppenheimer' is directed by legendary filmmaker Christopher Nolan, who is known for films like 'Memento', 'Inception', 'The Dark Knight Trilogy', 'Tenet' and 'Dunkirk'. The film is set to release in India by PVR INOX on July 21, 2023.
