Nora Fatehi is stepping into Tamil cinema with a bang as she headlines Kanchana 4, the much-awaited fourth instalment of the popular horror-comedy franchise. Already riding high on the success of her latest song ‘Oh Mama! Tetema’, Nora is embracing this new phase of her career with enthusiasm.
Talking to Hindustan Times, about why she chose Kanchana 4, the actor shared, “When Kanchana 4 was offered to me, I immediately felt it was the right project to step into Tamil cinema. The franchise already has such a strong legacy, and the script was so unique that I wanted to be part of it. I was looking to be a part of another comedy after the success of Madgaon Express.”
Language has been a challenge, but Nora isn’t one to shy away from experiments. “Of course language is always a challenge, but I love challenges. I’ve had to adapt to Hindi, Telugu, Malayalam before, and now Tamil. It’s definitely the hardest so far but I spend extra hours rehearsing my lines and working on the pronunciation,” she explained.
What has kept her motivated is the encouragement she’s received on set. “The nicest thing has been the crew telling me they didn’t expect me to be so natural in the comic bits. That kind of feedback really keeps me going. And I feel it’s about respecting the culture, the language, and giving your best,” said Nora, who has earlier acted in films like Be Happy.
With experience in Malayalam and Telugu industries too, Nora reflected on the differences she’s noticed. “Every industry has its own flavour. Tamil cinema is very rooted in storytelling, and there’s a lot of emphasis on performance and strong scripts. Bollywood, on the other hand, has its own larger-than-life energy. Both industries are passionate about cinema, but the styles of working, the audience expectations, and even the filmmaking processes feel slightly different. For me, it’s exciting to experience and learn from both worlds.”
Kanchana 4 is directed by Raghava Lawrence and it also stars Pooja Hegde.
