Nora Fatehi is currently breaking the headlines these days after her item number O Saki Saki in John Abraham’s upcoming film Batla House has been released.
The actress who has been currently promoting her upcoming film has recently 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.
Nora Fatehi opens up about being bullied
While talking to Pinkvilla, 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.”
She further added, ”I started learning Hindi but the auditions were very traumatic for me. I wasn’t really mentally prepared and I made a fool of myself. People were really unforgiving. They wouldn’t just be mean, they would laugh in front of my face as if I’m some circus. They would bully me. It was humiliating. I used to cry while travelling back to my home. There was this one casting agent who once told me, ‘We don’t need you here. Go back’. I’ll never forget that.”

On the workfront, Nora will be next seen in Remo D’souza’s ‘Street Dancer 3D’ alongside Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor.
