But even before the song drops, Nora has sparked fresh excitement with her latest banter with musician Sanjoy, where she teased the idea of singing in Bengali.
In the playful exchange, Sanjoy suggested she try a Bengali chorus. Nora, who has already performed in Arabic, Swahili, and Punjabi, admitted that Bengali feels ‘beautiful but intimidating’. “What if I sound silly?” she asked. To which Sanjoy reassured, “You won’t. We’re going to celebrate it.”
The moment quickly turned into a lighthearted commitment, with Nora exclaiming, “Guys, I don’t know what this man’s got me doing… we’re doing a song in Bengali. Pray for me!” Sanjoy even threw in a potential hook line: “Ki maya, Lagaiso.”
If this experiment comes alive, Bengali fans could soon see Nora lend her voice to a chorus in their own language. “It’s not just about being global, it’s about celebrating every culture authentically,” Nora shared.
