Sunny Leone may be controversy’s favourite child, but she’s strong enough to shrug off that sorry label.
Porn star turned Bollywood sensation Sunny Leone does not believe in playing the victim card. Considering the number of controversies she has courted, she may feel like a "soft target" but does not identify as a "victim", according to a PTI report.
From her performances being cancelled to protests against her public appearances and sexist remarks galore, Sunny has faced much heat over the years but is not one to give in easily. "I don't see myself as a victim but I may be a soft target. I believe people should have the right to say what they want to, when they want to, how they want to, whether it's right or wrong is their choice and moral stand," PTI quoted her as saying.
"Most of the time I brush it off because it's nonsense... Sometimes it gets on my nerves. Does it hurt me? No. Is it annoying? Yes," she told reporters while speaking at the launch of her biographical web series, Karenjit Kaur- The Untold Story of Sunny Leone.
Describing her life to the show’s writers was full of "laugh and a lot of tears", and there were a lot of parts that she did not want to recount. "It had to make sense to our story. So whether it was a good thing or bad, I had to tell it all. We sat for six months where I just told stories about myself and from those stories we have made 20 episodes," she said.
The Zee5 web series goes online from July 16 and the actor says she is nervous about sharing her story with the world. “I'm still on the fence whether it was the right choice or the wrong. I know deep down it was the right choice. I'm just scared, that's all," she added.
