when did Norah finally meet her father, sitar player Ravi Shankar?
According to a book that Anoushka wrote about their father:
Anoushka picked up the ringing phone, and someone on the other line asked for Mr. Shankar. Anoushka was estatic when she found out it was her half sister on the phone, and her mother talked to Norah as well and finally Shankar talked to his daughter who he hadn't seen or heard from in eons. Norah had just finished high school. When she was young, she never saw her father as often as they both would have wanted because of the shaky bridge between him and Sue Jones. Norah and Shankar have had many shouting matches as he married Anoushka's mother and not her mother and she never saw him as a child- but at the same time there is great love between the two.
what does Anoushka call Norah
Anoushka was never sure whether to call her sister 'Norah' or 'Geetali' so she came up with the nickname: GENIE; a morph of the two names
Do Norah, her father and step sister get along?
Norah gets along very well with Anoushka and her mother, in fact it was Anou's mother that pushed Norah to come and visit them; they even travelled to India together
