Gen

The
Street
Dancer
3D
actress
spoke
at
length
about
her
journey
and
struggles
in
life
and

She

revealed
that
her
family
had
financial
woes
and
as
a
result,
she
started
working
since
she
was
in
high
school.
Nora
said,
“My
first-ever
job
was
as
a
retail
sales
associate
in
a
mall
which
was
right
next
to
my
high
school
so
I
would
finish
my
classes
and
go
there.
I
was
16.
I
had
to
work
for
many
reasons.
There
were
a
lot
of
financial
issues
in
my
family
and
I
was
supposed
to
be
the
one
that
would
step
up
and
be
the
breadwinner”
She
went
on
to
add,
“I
was
working
in
a
men’s
clothing
store
so
I
was
selling
suits,
putting
outfits
together
and
all
that.
After
that,
I
did
numerous
things.
I
worked
as
a
waitress
in
restaurants,
bars
and
shawarma
places.
I
worked
in
a
telemarketing
office,
cold
calling
people
and
selling
lottery
tickets.
'Hi,
ma’am,
do
you
want
to
buy
this
ticket?’
and
90
percent
of
the
time,
they
were
like
(imitates

of

I
worked
on
commission,
I
worked
in
McDonald's
once.
I
did
everything.”

India,
set
against

Indo-Pak
war.
She
began
shooting

learned
Mixed
Martial
Arts
as
a
part
of
her
prep
for
her
role

Devgn
