When film star and television celeb Noor puts her foot down, she puts her foot down … literally.

No, no, not in her real life, but at musical shows staged for an audience. Noor has now confined her artistic oeuvre to acting and hosting TV programmes. Fair enough gal! Your life, your twists and turns!
