This happened after an Indian cinema accidentally used the subtitles for Barbie during an Oppenheimer screening. 

A photo showing this was shared by a Twitter user named @sapunintended, who wrote that “friend of my cousin posted on [Instagram] that a cinema played Oppenheimer with Barbie subtitles”.

Along with the post, a photo also included a snap of Cillian Murphy in Oppenheimer, with the subtitles “Barbie!” and “We’re so happy to see you”. 

Check that out below.

“This means that the same theatre, in another show played Oppenheimer subtitles in a Barbie show”. The user also shared a self-made shot of Margot Robbie's Barbie with a subtitle that reads “I am become death… destroyer of worlds”.

This subtitle also refers to a line used by the Indian scripture Bhagavad Gita, which Robert J Oppenheimer used throughout his career working on an atomic bomb.

This led to one ingenious Twitter user coming up with the joke, “*the scene where bomb is about to go off* The subtitles; *come on barbie let’s go party*”".
