0

Superstar Rajinikanth’s Jailer is less than a month away from its release and there is some curiosity about this Nelson Dileepkumar project. The songs released so far have received a mixed response and now it’s all up to Superstar Rajinikanth to get the movie off to a good start.

Jailer is going to be 2 and half hours in length and is about a gang of dreaded mobsters trying to get their leader out of jail. Rajinikanth plays the titular role in the project and will be pitted against these deadly gangs trying to stop them.

The movie is crucial for both Rajini and Nelson. While the Superstar’s last film Annaatthe failed at the box office, Nelson’s action thriller Beast also suffered a similar fate. This time however, it appears like Superstar Rajinikanth will be back with a bang as the film’s premise is quite interesting and it features an exciting star cast comprising of Mohanlal, Shiva Rajkumar, Suni and Jackie Shroff among others

Anirudh Ravichander composed the music for the film while the big-budget action entertainer is bankrolled by Sun Pictures. The film will also feature Ramya Krishnan and with such a packed cast of talented stars, the Jailer sure looks like a feast for the fans.

Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer Shows Sold Out All Over India

0

Would you believe me if I told you that a British-American director has comprehensively sold out a film in a country like India, which celebrates fanfare more than the ‘Actor’ and puts the star on a pedestal?

That’s right, director Christopher Nolan who has so often tickled our brains with his stellar canvases and mind-bending plotlines, is back again and this time, it is bigger than ever. Perhaps the single most awaited movie of this year, Oppenheimer is just a few days away from its grand release and the reception is insane.

A Nolan film selling out in the USA or any other foreign country is not unheard of. But, the amount of frenzy surrounding the film in India, is fascinating. The organizers released the first tickets to Oppenheimer in India quite some time before the release, charging prices of up to 1000 Rupees per ticket. And within no time, the tickets almost sold out. To put it in context, that is equal to about at least 5-8 movie tickets.

Christopher Nolan has repeatedly stated that he designed “Oppenheimer” for the biggest of screens and that an IMAX screen would provide the best experience. Nolan has shot the entire film on IMAX cameras, and apparently, he has not used any CGI in the movie. And although there are IMAX screens in India, unfortunately, most of these screens are digital IMAX screens.

But don’t for a second think this hindered anybody’s interests. Oppenheimer’s IMAX screen shows are SOLD OUT across India. I’m not talking about one city or one region, this is the entire country here. And this is not the case for the opening day alone. There are no shows available till 25th July.

And want to hear something crazier? It is common knowledge that fans conduct these ‘Fan Shows’ for their favorite actor’s films. These shows are held in the early mornings, as early as 3 AM. There are fan shows for Oppenheimer across the country, mainly in cities like Mumbai and Hyderabad, starting at 3 AM. Do not misunderstand, none of these people are attending this film because it is about Oppenheimer. It is all because of one man, Christopher Nolan.

Oppenheimer is releasing on 21st July. The film boasts a stellar cast of Cillian Murphy, Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, and many others. It is a story about the life of Robert J Oppenheimer, the man behind the development of the Atomic Bomb.
