Sunny Leone, renowned actress, entrepreneur, MTV Splitsvilla host, and advocate for social causes, is a multifaceted personality. Known for her sizzling looks and bold roles, there's a deeper side to her that often goes unnoticed. We caught up with her to discover what truly drives her.
Born in Ontario, Canada, Sunny Leone grew up enjoying the cold Canadian winters. Born Karenjit Kaur Vohra, she has Punjabi roots and was raised in a typical Sikh household. She had a passion for sports, singing and dancing and excelled in them. A wonderful performer, she loved to bask in the appreciation and accolades that came with it. The natural progression in her life was modelling post which she moved to the adult entertainment industry. Fate however had other plans in store for her. A stint in the Indian reality TV show Bigg Boss not only made Sunny Leone a household name in India, her demeanour on the show and her positive attitude won her many fans. Her popularity was on the upward ascendant and it was at this juncture that there was a major turning point. She made her Bollywood debut with the erotic thriller, Jism 2 by Indian filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt. The film was a hit and this cemented her position in the Bollywood film industry. The rest as they say is history.
Coming up, Quotation Gang!
Sunny wants to shed her image of just doing bold roles and is moving to the next sphere in cinema with her role in the upcoming Tamil flick Quotation Gang. She will be making her Tamil debut alongside Priyamani and Jackie Shroff. The film is likely to be a game-changer for Sunny as she takes on a calculating and ruthless role which is quite a change from her usual glamorous image.
Directed by R Yuvan whose previous directorial was the 2009 heist film Sindhanai Sei, this horror-comedy has been shot across Chennai, Mumbai, and Perambalur. Sunny liked the story and had given her nod to it right at the very first meeting.
