Christopher Nolan’s much-awaited movie ‘Oppenheimer’, a biopic on the eponymous American physicist who created the first atomic bomb, comes at a time when the world is once again zoomed into the nuclear issue.

Some countries are pulling the plug on nuclear reactors while others are rushing in the opposite direction.
