Nora Fatehi reveals she almost turned down Dilbar due to skimpy costume: ‘Don’t make me a sex symbol’ | Bollywood

November 1, 2024, and Bollywood’s own dancing queen, Nora Fatehi, is spilling the beans! In a world where ‘chhoti si baatein’ can become big controversies, Nora decided to put her ‘pairo ki zameen’ down when it came to her outfit for the hit song "Dilbar." 🤔💃

Nora’s Fashion Face-off!

Nora Fatehi, the Canadian sensation who’s danced her way into our hearts, recently shared a story that had us all nodding in agreement. While chatting with the one and only Rajeev Masand at the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne 2024, Nora revealed she initially said "No way, Jose!" to shooting "Dilbar." Why, you ask? Because the blouse was so tiny it could double as a handkerchief! 😲

Picture this: a room full of filmmakers, and Nora, with all her sass, says, “Look, yaaron, we can either make this another item song where everyone just oogles, or we can create something that families can watch without feeling like they need to hide behind the sofa cushions." She wanted a dance-centric number, not just another skin show for the masses.

Nora’s Stand on ‘Over the Top’ Costumes

Nora made it clear, "Bhai log, I’m not wearing this chhota sa kapda. Don’t oversexualize me. Haan, it’s a sexy song, but let’s not cross the line into vulgarity, okay?” It seems her stern words worked, as the costume team had to whip up a new blouse in record time to make sure our diva was comfortable shaking a leg.

Sure, the final outfit was still on the ‘sexy’ side, but as Nora says, it was within her comfort zone. And isn’t that what matters? ✨

Nora’s Next Big Move

After rocking a significant role in Kunal Khemu’s "Madgaon Express," Nora is all set to dazzle in her Telugu debut, "Matka," alongside Varun Tej and Meenakshi Chaudhary. Looks like the dance floor isn’t the only place she’s conquering! 🌟

Kiran’s Gyan 🧠

Bollywood ka golden rule: When in doubt, dance it out! But remember, comfort is key, doston. Whether it’s a blouse or a blockbuster, if it ain’t comfy, it ain’t worth it! After all, ‘dil hai ke maanta nahi’ when it comes to uncomfortable outfits. 😜
