Nargis Fakhri is still remembered as a “rock star” girl. While her pairing with Ranbir Kapoor in this Imtiaz Ali film will forever be remembered, the actress had also acted in other films like ‘Main Tera Hero’. In a recent interview, Nargis revealed that there was this situation a few years ago that forced her to quit the industry.

Do you support Nargis Fakhri’s bold take on Bollywood dance numbers?
She told Subhash K. Jha, “I encountered an unfortunate situation that prevented me from returning to Bollywood. I don’t want to talk about it.” The factor of having to pander to male egos is international. So, no, not that.” It’s not the case for everyone in this industry, but I’ve met and worked with some great people through it. I’m really grateful to them. ”
The actress also talked about how she adapted to Bollywood and the culture here. She also found dancing here quite difficult at first, but gradually got used to it. However, she always thought that the tags “item girl” and “item song” had quite negative connotations. Nargis said, “I completed a song and dance with Shahid Kapoor in Fata Poster Nikra Hero and then completed a song and dance with Varun Dhawan in Main Tera Hero called ‘Item Song’. Even the terminology was new to me. When people say girls do item songs, they’re what they’re talking about. In a less positive way, Bollywood dance is as foreign to me as Hindi, and I enjoy learning it. It was difficult at first, but after a while it got okay. If you think about it, here in Mumbai, there are a lot of people who are into different activities on set. ”
Nargis will be making a comeback with Housefull 5, which also stars Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Sonam Bajwa and Jacqueline Fernandez.
