Nora, who is seen in the film as Tasha, has been appreciated. The actress however revealed that she was afraid of the cast of the film. She revealed saying, “I was nervous to meet them because I had studied their work, manifested working with them and I wanted them to take me seriously and not think, ‘Oh she is here to just look good’ or is some ‘eye candy’ for the film. Sometimes actors don’t take people like me seriously when you meet them. I was nervous that what would they think about me. So I wanted to ensure I do a good reading, my Hindi is ok, because I wanted them to respect me.”
She further said, “But when I met them, they were so amazing. After 10 minutes, I didn’t feel that nervousness anymore. Of course I was always thinking that I should do my scenes well, say my dialogues properly, so that they are also happy with me. Actors who take their craft seriously don’t appreciate people who don’t do the same. It is commendable, because you put so much time and effort, you want the same from the other person.”
Nora further stated that she realises her capabilities, “It has just taken too much time and now that it is happening, I am just so excited to do more, to learn. People have just seen just two dimensions of mine, and I am so multi-dimensional as an artiste and I know that. I want people to see that. It is happening.”
Nora further added, “People are not at fault who think female actors can’t be funny. In our industry, our writers have not pushed the envelope with female characters especially in comedies. This is the time when writers should start writing for women in comedies. They can be good looking funny people, there is nothing wrong in that.”
On the work front, Nora will next bes een in Be Happy with Abhishek Bachchan, and Varun Tej starer Matka on Netflix show.
