Nora Fatehi is one of the biggest names in Bollywood today. The actress also showed her fine acting chops in 'Street Dancer 3D,' and 'Bhuj: The Pride of India'.

With a Canadian and Moroccan lineage, Nora Fatehi is known for her nuanced dancing and acting chops that she was never allowed to develop during her childhood. However, quite recently, she added another feather to her list of achievements by performing for the much-awaited Fifa World Cup.

Opening up on her experience of performing at the FIFA World Cup 2022, Nora said, "To play the song for the FIFA World Cup anthem - Light the Sky - it's everything to me. To just stand there and sing the song." Spilling more details on the FIFA World Cup anthem and its aura, Nora added, "The song has so much positivity. It means unity to me, diversity - being able to have Hindi lyrics in the song, despite India not being part of the FIFA World Cup - but they are part in spirit - through music, through dance, through art. That was the goal: have the audience light up their lights and sing the lyrics with me."

Furthermore, Nora also quipped, "Whenever Light the Sky comes on, it gives me a sense of celebration. It's such an impactful, positive energy, and yeah, it's a good feeling. The emotions I was feeling on stage were just a mix of epic and surreal. I was so nervous, but at the same time, I felt a sense of gratitude when I saw all those people just come out for that moment."

Opening up on her favorite team, Nora said that she is supporting Morocco. She also added that on the day of the match between Morocco and Canada, she would be hiding in a hole and would come out only when the match is over. Nora said, "The way Morocco played Belgium the other day, I was so impressed."

She also said, "The day of Canada and Morocco's match, I will be hiding, in a hole. You won't find me. I'll come out when they're done."
