He took onto his official Twitter page last night after watching Oppenheimer and wrote, “Watched Oppenheimer 6pm show at pvr Juhu today. It’s not just a good film but a great film…”

 

While a lot of his followers agreed with Akhtar, there was one who tried testing the veteran’s knowledge on isotopes, about which a lot is said in Oppenheimer. The Twitter user wrote, “Explain isotope plz.” To this, Akhtar gave a detailed reply saying, “It is the smallest unit of matter that has all the qualities of an element but knowing this is not necessary to understand the film, it is a story of a human being who happens to be a scientist.”

 

 

 

Oppenheimer has earned over Rs 60 crores in India in its first five days, despite having some competition from another Hollywood movie in the form of Barbie. But along with good box office numbers, Oppenheimer has also landed in a controversy in the country owing to an intimate scene where a shloka from the Bhagavad Gita is recited, which has hurt the sentiments of some Hindus.
