Wasn't easy growing up in NY with my last name

Nargis Fakhri has returned from the US after shooting her first international film entitled ‘Spy’. Directed by Paul Feig, the film will see Nargis in her first action role. Apparently, Nargis kicked some serious ass in Los Angeles. Speaking about her role and the film Nargis said, "I don't know why some sections of the Indian media have written that I've shot with Jude Law. Because I haven't! He is in the film, but I haven't shot with him yet."

"There are also Jason Statham and Melissa MacCarthy in ‘Spy’ with me. I can't reveal what I am playing until the producers make their announcement. But I can tell you they're planning a global campaign with actors from various parts of the world. I'd be representing this part of the world," added the actress. Nargis loved working with Paul Feig.

"He's directed ‘Bridesmaids’ and ‘The Heat’. He was amazing to work with. I've to go back for about a week's work. All I'll tell you about my role is its action-packed." Nargis says Bollywood and Hollywood are completely different experiences. "I am not saying one is better than the other. I enjoy both. But Hollywood is far more organised than Bollywood." Everyone on Twitter is commenting on Nargis's comments in ‘Koffee With Karan’ on her "butt cheeks".

Nargis said, "I said Nargis' in Spanish means 'butt cheeks'. So, my name has become a butt of many jokes. I am used to jokes about name. Let me tell you it's not easy growing up in the ghetto area of New York with a name like 'Fakhri'. I didn't grow up with Asians who could perhaps know what a beautiful surname I had. All my friends were Americans and non-Asians. They had a whale of a time with my name." One complaint against Nargis within the industry is that her team is too interfering. Nargis defends her team. "When I came to Mumbai I had no one to support me. My team is all that I had. It still holds true. I am struggling to find my bearings."
