From “pornstar-turned-actress”, she is simply referred to as “actress” these days. And Sunny Leone has to thank 2014 for that as she managed to firmly entrench herself in Bollywood during the year.
The actress, who will ring in the New Year in Hyderabad, is happy with her Bollywood journey so far. Talking about her upcoming film, One Night Stand, directed by debutante Jasmine D’Souza, she says, “This is not the first female director I am working with… before Jasmine, I worked with Pooja Bhatt for my debut film Jism 2. I am very comfortable working with female directors. It was great working with Jasmine for One Night Stand.”
About working opposite actor Tanuj Virwani in the film she says, “On the first day, Tanuj and I sat quietly on the sets…I don’t like to intimidate anybody. However, the second day onwards we became friends as we started to get to know each other. We have wrapped up our first schedule and I could be shooting for the film next month as well. “This year has been great for me. Ragini MMS and Baby Doll were the most happening things for me during 2014. I am proud of the fact that Baby Doll was liked by adults as well as the youth.
“It is also a great feeling that the nation has accepted me,” she adds. Over the months, she has also built a great relationship with Tollywood. “It feels great working with people in Hyderabad,” she says, adding, “Also the kind of reception I got here, not only in the industry, but also from the crowds, has been heartwarming.
Therefore, I chose to celebrate the New Year with the wonderful people of Hyderabad… Let’s have fun and enjoy this New Year together,” she says, With New Year around the corner, the actress also has some special tips for men who want to impress their special someone, “Men need to dress up to impress. Also, they need to smell good,” she smiles. She also has some safety tips for girls, “Always stay in groups during New Year parties.”
