While talking about performing her song Siir Siir at the opening ceremony, Nora told Hindustan Times, “The experience has definitely evolved me as an artist. It’s been a fulfilling and inspiring journey. When I was attending the AFCON matches in Morocco in January, I heard almost 70,000 fans chant ‘Siir Siir’ in the stadium during every game, and I was in awe. The energy inspired me to reach out to producer Sanjoy and ask him to create a World Cup anthem using this chant.”
