A Landmark Project For Christopher Nolan
The upcoming release follows the success of Oppenheimer, the previous collaboration between Nolan and Thomas. The Oscar-winning film earned $958.8 million (approx. Rs 8,390 crore) globally and received 13 Academy Award nominations, taking home seven awards, including Best Picture and Best Director.
