She shared a glimpse of the empty cinema halls along with the empty refreshments area and how lonely she felt while watching the film on the big screen. In the following post on the micro-blogging site, the actress ex[pressed her opinion about the film and wrote, “The surreality of this experience I hold very close to my heart, as I do the sheer resilience of the human spirit. Slowly yet surely, overcome it all we shall. As a recurring dialogue from #Tenet goes- “What’s happened has happened.” Long live movies. And their ethereal magic.”

In the next post, the actress gave a shoutout to veteran actress Dimple Kapadia while sharing a snapshot of the actress from the film. She hailed her for her “outstanding presence” on the screen even after ages. She praised her marvelous acting and wrote that Dimple Kapadia “lighted up that Nolan universe with her blazing eyes and grace.”

Earlier, a little less than a week after the Tenet release date in India, Twinkle Khanna had a conversation with Mr. Nolan himself. During the interview, the Tenet director answered some questions that the fans had been asking for a while. In the video, Nolan could be seen reminiscing about the time when he came down to Mumbai for less than 24 hours in order to audition Kapadia. He recollects how a nervous Dimple Kapadia had begun recommending other names for the part of the Mumbai-based arms dealer, Priya. nevertheless, her humility and self-doubt are what exactly drew him closer to Kapadia. 

Ever since the film has released on the big screen, it has been fairing well in garnering much love and appreciation from the fans. Even though people are quite hesitant in stepping out of their house to watch the film on the big screen, yet the John David Washington-Robert Pattinson film earned Rs 4.20 crore in the opening weekend. Starting with Rs 1.20 crore on Friday, the collections marginally improved to Rs 1.40 crore and Rs 1.60 crore on the next two days.
