Indian film director Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri recently expressed his joy over the overwhelming response garnered by Oppenheimer in Kashmir, a film which is based on the life of American theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer. Furthermore, he announced that his own science-focused movie, The Vaccine War, co-produced with Pallavi Joshi, is also slated for release in Kashmir, a region where cinema houses once faced cinematic and creative bans and destruction in the `90s.
In a jubilant social media post, Agnihotri said, "BRILLIANT NEWS! Cinema halls were once burnt and banned in the 90s, but today, it`s heartening to witness the first film to fill houses is a science-based one like `Oppenheimer.` Science truly has the power to captivate and inspire, and I couldn`t be happier for the makers of that incredible film!"
