However, she utilized that experience to navigate her way through the film world.She said, “It's (Bollywood) a little bit worse than high school since most of these cliques grew up together from day one. But when you've done it once, it feels like you can do it again. Since you're an outsider, if you don't prove yourself or learn Hindi, assimilate and prove to them that 'Hey, I can be like you guys,' there's no way in.”The Madgaon Express actress explained that she doesn't blame Bollywood, viewing it as a company where success requires knowledge and experience. While her fellow models enjoyed nights out at clubs, she focused on studying the industry and created graphs to analyze it.Through her research, the Bharat actress realized that newcomers who struggle to maintain their success often fade away after a year or so. She stated, “That's also when I understood one thing: if a foreigner came into Bollywood and they didn't make it, most of the time it's because they didn't learn the language (Hindi) or didn't assimilate.”Nora explained that some foreign actors attempt to emphasize their identity as American or Canadian, wanting others to recognize it.
