Renowned Bollywood actress-dancer Nora Fatehi has finally been granted permission to come to Bangladesh, the Ministry of Information said on Monday after much speculation and controversy regarding her arrival in the country.
On November 18, this Indian-Canadian actress is going to shoot for a documentary titled "Women Empowerment in Bangladesh," as part of the organisation’s Global Achievers Award.
A community organization, Women`s Leadership Corporation had previously applied several times to the government for permission to welcome Nora.
On Monday, in a letter issued by the Ministry of Information, it was stated that the government has granted permission and she will be allowed to visit Dhaka on November 18 just for the shoot.
President of Women Leadership Corporation, Sharna Maria Mrittik confirmed the news to the media on Monday.
Except for travel time, the actress is only permitted to enter the country for one day to participate in documentary filming and is not permitted to work or participate in any other activities during this period, according to a circular from the Ministry of Information that was signed by Deputy Secretary Mohammad Saiful Islam.
Nora was scheduled to arrive in Dhaka in mid-December to perform at an awards event, but the permission was denied by the Ministry of Cultural Affairs due to the dollar crisis.
