Nora Fatehi Blasts Bollywood Filmmakers; Accuses Them Of Casting Only ‘Four Girls’! Says ‘They Won’t Think Beyond That’-DETAILS INSIDE
Nora Fatehi has come a long way and she has been scaling great heights with sheer hard work. While she continues to make waves as the dancing queen of Bollywood, she has also carved a space for herself in the industry as an actor. However, the actress has revealed it is difficult to receive approval from the makers and she convenience them to cast her. 

The 31-year-old actress made her on-screen debut in 2020 with Screen Dancer 3D, the actress wants to explore different genres in her forthcoming films. 


Now, in an interaction with News18, the actress has admitted that there is a shortage of filmmakers who wanted to try their luck on her. She said, “I don’t think because I dance is why they don’t want to cast me. Our main iconic heroines in Bollywood have been dancers who perform beautifully. And they excel in dance numbers, right? That was just a part of the package of being like an iconic heroine. I don’t think it was because of that. I think it was always, oh, I don’t know. It’s almost like let’s see who will take the chance on her [on me] and if she delivers in all the categories, meaning, the acting skills, the presence, the aura, the ability to express the language skill, then we’ll all jump on the opportunity.”

She continued, “So I think it was who would have got the b**** to do it first, to take a chance on me first. I think that was what everyone was waiting for.”


Nora also pointed out that there is intense competition in Bollywood and that filmmakers are not casting anybody apart from ‘four girls’ who are getting work at present.  

Moreover, she was careful trying not to point fingers at any actresses. 

She added, ”Today the industry has become very competitive. Let’s be realistic. There are only a few films a year. And sometimes what happens with filmmakers is they don’t think outside of what’s in front of them. So if only four girls are doing films, and they’re going in rotation, and all four are getting projects nonstop, the filmmakers will only remember those four, they won’t think beyond that.”


Nora Fatehi continued, “So your job is to try to intercept the four and become five and get into rotation and then that’s just how the ball rolls. And yeah, I mean, it’s hard work, but it’s happening. And I’m very grateful for that. I just have to prove myself, so I can stick around. That’s the next challenge.”

Speaking of her upcoming projects, Nora said, “So I’ve been only shooting films this year. It’s been crazy, back-to-back firms, and as lead roles, it’s happening now, a lot of them will be releasing next year. I’m particularly excited about one or two projects right now. And I’m really lucky. You know I’ve been waiting for so long to be cast as a lead in a film. And this year, they’ve just happened back to back so quickly, and thankfully, in different genres. So one is a comedy with Excel films. One is a family drama film. I’m very, very, very excited about that one. One other one is an extreme action sports film. And now I’m doing two Telugu films as one of the leads. And yeah 100% is not happening anymore.”
