MUMBAI: Dancing queen Nora Fatehi is known fror the Dilbar song in "Satyamev Jayate and O Saki Saki in "Batla House. Nora has been garnering applause from the audience for her stunning moves. The situation, however, was different for her a few years ago. She had faced a hard time during her initial days in the industry.
Nora had revealed how she was cheated by casting agencies and roomates during her struggling days in the industry. She was even duped of Rs 20 lakh. Nora feels that life isn't easy for foreigners in India and she had some of the worst experiences initially.
“Life for foreigners in India is very difficult. We go through a lot and people don’t even know. They take our money. It’s happened to me. I remember my first agency. They were really aggressive in terms of behavior and I didn’t feel like I was guided the right way. So I wanted to leave them and in order to do that, they told me ‘we are not going to give you your money’. And I lost 20 lakhs at that time, which I had made from my ad campaigns. But I thought sacrificing it would be for a bigger picture", said Nora in an interaction.
Nora has also faced humiliation for her Hindi accent. People would not just make fun of her accent but also laugh at her on her face during auditions. Today, Nora is not just a known face in Bollywood but also highly successful.
