Gulte Telugu news
Irish actor Cillian Murphy has revealed that part of his preparation for the titular role in Christopher Nolan’s upcoming film “Oppenheimer” involved reading the Hindu text of Bhagavad Gita. In a recent interview, Murphy shared that he found the text beautiful and inspiring.
The Bhagavad Gita played a significant role in the life of J. Robert Oppenheimer, the character Murphy portrays in the film. Oppenheimer, a student of Sanskrit, famously quoted the Gita after the successful testing of the world’s first atomic bomb, stating, “Now I become death, the destroyer of worlds.”
Murphy acknowledged the consolation that the text provided Oppenheimer, stating that it seemed a source of solace throughout his life. However, when asked about what he learned from the Bhagavad Gita, the actor playfully responded, “Well, don’t grill me on it! I just found it very beautiful.”
“Oppenheimer” is based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning book “American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer” by Kai Bird and the late Martin J. Sherwin. The film is expected to be Christopher Nolan’s longest and is rated R for obvious reasons.
Fans can look forward to the release of “Oppenheimer” in cinemas on July 21.
