MUMBAI: After setting the box office on fire, Marvel’s Doctor Strange is all set to bring his magic alive on the small screen. This Diwali, watch the Sorcerer Supreme triumph over evil, only on Star Movies, on 15 October, at 1 PM and 9 PM.
Doctor Strange is the story of world-famous neurosurgeon Dr. Stephen Strange whose life changes forever after a horrific car accident robs him of the use of his hands. When traditional medicine fails him, he is forced to look for healing, and hope, in an unlikely place—a mysterious enclave known as Kamar-Taj. He quickly learns that this is not just a centre for healing but also the front line of a battle against unseen dark forces bent on destroying our reality. Before long Strange—armed with newly acquired magical powers—is forced to choose whether to return to his life of fortune and status or leave it all behind to defend the world as the most powerful sorcerer in existence
Touted for its mind-bending and stunning visuals, Doctor Strange stars Benedict Cumberbatch, Tilda Swinton, Rachel McAdams, Chiwetel Ejiofor and Mads Mikkelsen. The film has grossed over US$ 670 Million worldwide, making it Marvel’s biggest single-character intro film till date. Doctor Strange is rated 7.5 on IMDB and 90 per cent fresh on Rotten Tomatoes.
Home to the biggest premieres on television, Star Movies endeavours to not only give the audience an experience to remember but also an invitation to fight their inner demons and beat the dark side with magic and mayhem! So, this Diwali, get set to watch the triumph of good over evil in this visual extravaganza.
