Actress Nora Fatehi is known for her stellar dance moves. Time and again, she has featured in memorable dance numbers on the big screen. The Canadian dancer-actor recently revealed that she initially said no to being art if the hit song 'Dilbar'. The song was a remake of an old Hindi song of the same-titled but this time around it became popular for Nora's perfect moves. She revealed that she 'put her foot down' upon seeing her tiny blouse as part of the costume for the song.
Nora was in conversation at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne 2024 where she explained in detail why she did not want to be a part of the song from the John Abraham-starrer 'Satyameva Jayate'. "When I sat with those filmmakers, the first thing I said is, ‘Look, we can make this into an item song and we can just look hot and sexy and end of story, or we could change the game and make this more into a dance-oriented visual, a dance-oriented experience where people don’t have to be uncomfortable to watch it with their families and kids. They can watch it and be like, ‘Oh, what dance style is this?’, ‘Look at the hook step, that’s crazy, I want to try it’. Most girls who appeared in such songs kind of want to show a bit of skin and then boom, the song is still going to be a hit.”
