Nargis Fakhri has been a part of some of the most commercial Bollywood movies and now she talk about her experience.
Nargis Fakhri On Her Struggle With Bollywood Dance
Nargis Fakhri, who entered the world of Hindi cinema with Rockstar in 2011, has been one of the prominent faces in the business. The actor, over the years, has tried her hands at various genres with Madras Cafe Azhar, Housefull 3, Dishoom, and more. But the actor has also been a go-to artist for dance numbers a lot of times. Fakhri, who has aced those in the past, has now spoken about how she finds all of it so difficult. Talking about Bollywood dance, she expressed how she finds “the heaving, thrusting, butt-moving” tough.
Nargis Fakhri, who has performed several dance numbers in movies, recalls how they give the artists the routines forty minutes before the shoot and are expected to shoot it with the lip-syncing, and how it requires one to be a seasoned dancer for that.
Nargis said, "The heaving, thrusting, butt-moving is tough. When they give you the movements forty minutes before they are shot and then you have to learn the steps and lip-sync, you have to be a seasoned dancer to get a hang of it, which I am not. It’s very difficult for my mind and body to be in sync because I have learned western dancing. Bollywood dancing is very different."
She further added, “Bollywood dancing is as alien to me as Hindi. I am just enjoying learning it. There is a lot of heaving and boob-thrusting, which I found difficult at first. But I was okay after a while. There are so many people indulging in so many activities on the sets. Come to think of it, everything here in Mumbai is culturally very different from everywhere else.”
Nargis Fakhri is right now shooting for Housefull 5 and we have been witnessing a lot of BTS fun. Helmed by Tarun Mansukhani and produced by Sajid Nadiadwala, the film also stars Sonam Bajwa, Akshay Kumar, Jacqueline Fernandez, Riteish Deshmukh, Abhishek Bachchan, Sanjay Dutt, Fardeen Khan, Nana Patekar, Chunky Pandey, Jackie Shroff, and Dino Morea. The film is scheduled to be released in theatres this year.
