Bollywood actor Dimple Kapadia recently starred in Christopher Nolan's latest project Tenet. In an interview, Kapadia opened up about her experience working with Nolan and how she felt after the film's release. The actor shared that the project has 'changed her life' for the better, reported Hindustan Times.
“I think doing Tenet has really changed my life. I was always a reluctant actor, I kept putting things off and not doing them. But Tenet has really changed that for me. I’m raring to go now. I want to do a lot of work now, good work.” Kapadia, who has an Oracle-like presence as arms dealer Priya Singh in the movie, said Nolan made things easy for actors. “It was so fantastic and unbelievably easy to slip into (the role). He (Nolan) made it so easy for me to get into it. It was a dream world and I wish I could get that better,” she was quoted as saying.
At the same time, Kapadia admitted that she was under a lot of “pressure” before the shoot. “Honestly, I was under so much pressure of my own while doing it. I was so tense that I couldn’t really appreciate or enjoy what was going on. If I think about it now, it was a beautiful dream for me,” she said.
Among other things, Kapadia revealed that when she read the film’s script, she couldn’t “fathom” what Nolan was trying to say with it.
“I was locked up in my vanity van for four hours, it took me that much time to read. When I read the first 20-30 pages, I didn’t know what I was reading. I’m an avid reader but I just couldn’t fathom where I was," she said. "Even after finishing it, I got the gist of it but still couldn’t fathom what he was trying to exactly say. So I was really looking forward to seeing how he’s going to translate it all into cinema as that would be the exciting part of it.”
