Nora Fatehi gets inspired by belly dancer Didem for her song

Nora Fatehi has currently been in the news for her upcoming dance number with John Abraham in the Nikhil Advani film, Satyameva Jayate. The announcement has gotten everyone keen to see what the beauty comes up with, especially since it is inspired by Sushmita Sen’s famous 90’s song “Dilbar” from the film Sirf Tum. Apart from having big shoes to fill, Nora has also taken major inspiration for her clothes and moves in the video from the renowned Turkish belly dancer, Didem.

The Turkish star is well known for her outfits and Nora wanted her costumes in the song to use some of those styles and cuts. In belly dancing, it is crucial to have the right outfit, especially those that give the dancer the freedom to glide through the floor. Not just the outfit, but Nora even channelized moves from the iconic figure in the dancing world and took inspirational cues from her while shaking a leg to the song. Nora is herself known for her belly dancing videos which she uploads on her social media earning her a great number of fan following.

Speaking about it, Nora said, “Didem is a marvel to look at when she dances and thus she’s a world renowned figure. I absolutely love doing belly dancing routine and anyone who follows the art knows who Didem is and she’s amazing at what she does. When I was shooting for Dilbar she was somebody I truly took inspiration from in putting together a well-choreographed number”.

The song is expected to release in June ahead of the film’s release. The actress is currently busy shooting for her upcoming TV stint as a host in MTV’s Dating in the Dark, the adaptation of the popular international reality show.
