Nora Fatehi, the hottest dancer and actress is hitting the headlines as she revealed something very surprising from her struggle days. Nora reveals that she was bullied for her lack of knowledge of Hindi language, was cheated of Rs 20 lakh and even had her passport stolen during her initial five years in the film industry.
Currently getting popular for her item number O Saki Saki in John Abraham’s upcoming film Batla House, Nora said, “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 who got me here from Canada. They were really aggressive in terms of behaviour 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 Rs 20 lakhs at that time, which I had made from my ad campaigns. But I thought sacrificing it would be for a bigger picture.”

The actress further added that the audition phase was traumatic because she was not really mentally prepared and people were really unforgiving. She said that they made fun of her in front of her and bullied her which was insulting. She cried a lot. She revealed that there was a casting agent who once told her, “We don’t need you here. Go back’. I’ll never forget that.”
She also claimed that her roommates once stole her passport. “I had to share an apartment with 8 girls. I walked in to this apartment, I was shocked and I was freaking out. My roommates stole my passport, I had to leave India and go back to Canada for a while.”
