She had to go back to Canada and people laughed at her and asked why she went to India in the first place. She then revealed that she went back to India, and fought, learned the language. “And you're gonna meet people who are gonna laugh at you on the way, whenever you try to speak. That happened to me all the time,” she said.

She said that she spent hours and months with her Hindi diction coach, and he would uplift her, saying she was so good. However, she would go to an audition, and they would know she isn't Indian. They asked her whether she would be able to say the lines in Hindi. When Nora tried, they would laugh during the take, and high-five each other.
