Talking about his experience on the 'Oppenheimer' set, he wrote, 'I was innocently walking on campus one day when I see a bunch of cool cars and a few people dressed in the 40s clothes. I thought a cool student group has a fashion show or something (Berkeley has awesome student groups).'

"Oppenheimer", starring Cillian Murphy, released last week but the craze still has not died down. The biography on the “father of the atomic bomb” J Robert Oppenheimer is directed by Christopher Nolan and has been receiving rave reviews from the masses. The film had a massive opening at the box office as well, and the clash with Greta Gerwig’s "Barbie" made things all the more interesting.

Now, a man’s experience of walking straight into "Oppenheimer's" set accidentally has gone quite viral online. Gasper Begus is an assistant professor at the University of California, Berkeley and he shared a post in which he talked about the same. Taking to Twitter, Begus shared a picture of a set that featured vintage cars.

Until someone starts yelling at me that I should get out of the way. Turns out I was in the middle of the @OppenheimerFilm movie scene,” he wrote further.
