Beginning the conversation by clearing some air on the much talked about controversy over the viral clip with Nora Fatehi, where Terence was accused by the audience of behaving in inappropriate behaviour, the choreographer clarifies by explaining the entire incident. Lewis tells Maniesh, “It was a simple situation. Shatrughan Sinha and his wife had come. Geeta Kapoor felt that we had to do full namaskar to greet them. That week, Malaika Arora had COVID, and Nora stepped into her shoes. I said okay, fine. We did namaskar as respect, but suddenly, Geeta felt that it was not enough and wanted us to do more. So we followed her directions. I don’t even remember if my hand touched her (Nora), I don’t know even if it is really touching.” Further, Terence says, “On a fair note, two weeks before, Nora had come on the show and asked me to dance with her… Why would I want to do something like this, when there are four cameras around? This is too cheap, you can’t do this. I got abused, in my DMs…”.
