In an interview with Mashable India, Nora Fatehi who is basking in the success of her recently released movie Madgaon Express, shared about her struggle days in Mumbai and called the entire experience "traumatising".

She said she came to Mumbai with just Rs 5000 in her pocket. "I lived with nine psychopaths in a three BHK apartment where I shared the room with two other girls. During my stay there, I used to think, ¡®What have I got myself into?¡¯ I am still traumatised." The agency she had signed would deduct her salary in the name of commission and she had to survive on a diet of eggs and bread, she added.

She continued, "If someone had told me that these are all the things I was going to go through -- 'You're going to meet evil people, they're going to steal your passport, you're going to get deported, you're going to go back to Canada and people are going to laugh at you. How do you go from a developed country to a developing country? You're going to go back to India, you're going to fight, learn the language, and you're going to meet people who are going to laugh at you on the way, they're going to laugh in your face'."
