Nora Fatehi`s remark on feminism
Nora Fatehi has been headlining the gossip column, but this time, it is for all the wrong reasons. She grabbed attention for her latest song, Sarke Chunar Teri Sarke, from the film KD: The Devil for its obscene lyrics and questionable choreography.
Amid the whole uproar, the actress issued a clarification saying she shot the song in Kannada without knowing what it meant. She added that she wasn`t aware of the Hindi-translated version.
Now, a journalist slammed Fatehi for her so-called fake stance on feminism. The actress strongly responded to the same and also highlighted how she`s proud of the way she has built her career.
Nora Fatehi responds to her feminism remark
Days after the song controversy, a journalist took to social media and pointed out how the Batla House actress had distanced herself from identifying as a feminist in the past and how many open-minded feminists came out to support her amid the trolls.
A part of the journalist`s post read, “Dear Nora, I hope you can see that despite the shots you’ve taken at feminism in the past, right now the only people even attempting to shift the conversation towards consent, authorship, and systemic accountability are the same modern feminists who have apparently completely messed up society.”

Fatehi took to the comments section and wrote how her remark on feminism had been misunderstood and clarified her stance on the same.
She wrote, “Don’t feel bad for me. I’m not going anywhere, nor am I asking for your sympathy. If you guys are true ‘feminists’, then let this be an opportunity to show me and people like me what ‘real feminism’ is."
"Because if it’s what I’ve been seeing lately online, with many of you jumping at the opportunity to bash me, insult me, and laugh at me, using it as a ‘got ya’ moment, then it’s you guys who don’t understand the true essence of feminism,” she added.

The Street Dancer actress said she hadn`t clarified her stance earlier and how the media took one statement and conveniently twisted it.
“I never said I’m against feminism. You conveniently stuck to one sentence I said, which I immediately explained with multiple other statements right after that. Yes, I said feminism messed up our society, but it was just a way I express myself, which can sometimes be extreme. I clarified right after that that I believe in the true foundation of feminism, women’s rights, and that I’ve always advocated for them. My issue has always been radical feminism, the extreme version that has, in my view, pushed hyper-independence and affected male-female dynamics," Nora Fatehi emphasised.
She continued, "Could I have explained it better? Yes. Should I feel safe enough to discuss issues women face today without being attacked by so-called feminists? I think so. I can’t help but feel that this part is ignored because it doesn’t suit your ‘I hate Nora’ agenda.”
Nora went on to add that despite being known for all the sizzling item numbers, she is proud of how she built her career.
"You can say I built my career through the male gaze all you want, but I’m proud of how I built my career. I did it with honour and dignity. I’ve reached milestones people only dream of. I represented India on global stages and always spoke about the South Asian community with love and humility. I have the support of women, children, and men who truly love me and my art. I did all this while respecting women,” the diva concluded.
