Nora Fatehi opens up about starting from ‘the bottom’ and making it big: ‘Nobody knows what gully I’ve come from’

“Everyone knows I am not from here. I come from the other side of the world. I didn’t know anyone here. I didn’t have any connections, friends or family here. And in my own right, gully se glory tak, yeh glory hain, but nobody knows what gully I have come from. I did come from the bottom completely. For me to say gully se glory tak, I have embodied that and I have lived that,” she said.

Nora looked back on her career, and said that she didn’t act choosy when it came to work. “I have done it all just so that I can reach where I want to be. I want to be in films, I want to act and dance and I want to be able to judge. I want to be performing on the biggest stage in the world. Anyone witnessing my journey is getting to see all of that happen. That’s a lot, thanks to dance and the people who actually believed in me,” she said.

Nora was last seen on the big screen in An Action Hero, in which she appeared in a song sequence in the end credits. This year, she’ll also star in Sajid Khan’s film 100%. She serves as a judge on the reality shows Dance Deewane Juniors and Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 10. Recently, Nora has also been under the scanner of law enforcement authorities for her alleged association with accused conman Sukesh Chandrasekhar.
