Nora Fatehi, known for her sensational dancing skills, has several fans worldwide. The Toronto-born Bollywood diva, who has delivered hits like Dilbar, Manike and Kusu Kusu, recently charmed her followers with a sensational performance at the Qatar World Cup 2022 fan festival.

Nora Fatehi lit the stage as she danced to her hit songs, including O Saki Saki and others, decked in a shimmering ensemble. She also stunned the crowd in Qatar by performing the official FIFA World Cup 2022 anthem, 'Light the Sky'. Days later, the gorgeous lady revealed what the song meant to her and what it felt like performing at football's grandest stage.

"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. 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," Nora Fatehi said.

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," the dancing diva added.

"It's a historic moment and big milestone for my career and to be associated with FIFA and the World Cup in Qatar - to bring everyone together in unity - whether it's my South Asian fans or Arab fans or my North African fans, just to see them together was such a blessing," Nora Fatehi concluded.
