Bollywood is a fickle world where if you don’t grab an opportunity, you might end up losing it to another star and then after probably feel that you should have managed to do that movie. No movie star is indispensable in the industry. A similar incident happened with the ‘Saki-Saki” fame Nora Fatehi when she was roped for a role under a big-budget movie that was previously being essayed by Parineeti Chopra.

‘Bhuj: The Pride Of India’ which stars Ajay Devgn, Sonakshi Sinha, Rana Daggubati, Sanjay Dutt, and Ammy Virk also had Parineeti Chopra under its cast until the actress decided to opt-out of the movie. Parineeti decided to quit the movie because of her date issues and prior commitments.

Parineeti’s loss is Nora Fatehi’s gain as she has been roped into playing the part of Parineeti, which was of a spy in the movie. Parineeti is busy shooting for Sania Nehwal’s biopic and mystery thriller ‘The Girl on the Train” thus, she had to opt-out of the movie.

Bhuj: The Pride of India is a film set in the times of unrest during the Indo-Pak war of 1971. It is a war action film inspired by the life of IAF Squadron Leader Vijay Karnik. It was during the Indo-Pakistani War of 1971, Vijay was in-charge of the Bhuj airport, who reconstructed the IAF airbase there with the help of 300 local women. The movie gained popularity by making headlines after the first look of the movie was released last month.

According to the sources close to the actress revealed, “She came on board recently and has started attending workshops for her role with the director, also focusing on getting the body language of a spy right. She will start shooting after January 12, as part of the war drama’s 15-day last schedule.”

Nora Fatehi is currently seen promoting her movie Street Dancer 3D along with Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor. The movie is releasing on Republic Day. Nora rose to fame with her special dance numbers, including Manohari (Baahubali: The Beginning), Dilbar (Satyamev Jayate), and O Saki Saki (Batla House), etc. Nora’s co-actor, Shraddha Kapoor has been vouching for the dancer as during the press-conference she mentioned that ‘Nora is one of the best dances I’ve ever seen’ and also asked the audience to ‘keep their handkerchiefs ready’ as her hotness will make them sweat.

Referring to the film as “her childhood dream”, Nora revealed that she had approached Remo D’Souza for a part. She revealed that when Remo was directing ‘Baby Marwake Maanegi’ she decided to approach the choreographer-director for a role in his next dance film. Nora stated that she had prepared herself in front of the mirror on how she was going to approach Remo but on the last day of the shoot, she blabbered to him to please cast her in his next film and ran away.

Nora Fatehi has made her fan following on her extremely versatile dancing skills that are pretty hard to match says that the Greek God Hritik Roshan is the reason for her dancing. I am a huge fan of Hrithik Roshan’s dance, and I think he’s the best dancer in Bollywood,”

The Canadian beauty also mentioned that she’d love to be cast opposite HR as the two will make a great onscreen pair, and their film would be the most epic movie in the history of dance. Nora stated that if the two are cast together in a movie, the movie will shatter all the dance films that have been made till now because it would have romance, drama, comedy, and some out of this world dancing. I mean, what can you expect more from HR and Nora?

Directors should cast these two in a movie, right?
