THE CURIOUS CASE OF SUNNY LEONE

sunny-leone-3_650_022814054949_030114051429

The recent interview of SUNNY LEONE is trending for the right reasons. You call a former porn star for an interview to remind her that she was a porn star before she became a Bollywood actress.  If this is not hypocrisy then what is?  How long will it take for people to realize that the porn industry functions like every industry? The porn stars do have a life beyond what they show on screen.

Here is a woman who is not ashamed of the choices she had made. People who ridicule her fail to understand one thing. The so called past has paved the way for a very successful transition to Bollywood. In fact she’s one of the few actresses in Bollywood who has survived without the support of the Khans, Kumar or Kapoor. She’s not a top class actress -s0me0ne who could make the audience go wow with her acting skills but atleast she’s aware of her strengths.

Throughout the whole interview she was grace personified despite being provoked with some ridiculous questions. I have just one question. Are we worthy enough to be the moral police and pass judgement?  We watch her in private, wear the mask of a saint and condemn her in public.

I am not sure if I will ever admire her for her screen presence. But I definitely admire her as an honest woman who doesn’t give a damn about what people think. Atleast she isn’t two faced like most of us.

    Very well written!

  2. We all live double lives. It’s a sham and admire her guts. She owns up to what she does and very few of us are capable of doing that. Superb write up.

  3. You nailed it! Well said.

  4. Good one. I have watched that CNN IBN interview and the interviewer was an idiot. Well said Salesh!

  5. I’m not a big fan of sunny leone.. both porn or bollywood.. her porn sounds and appears fake and her acting in bollywood movies doesn’t seem natural.. Coming to my conclusion on the interview I feel it was orchestrated to show how composed she was.. blah blah blah.. yet another attempt by her to get to the good books of the people through paid media.. i see that it has already started working.. people have already started supporting her.. ‘oh poor thing! Why do harass her?’ kind of tone..

      So, it means you have watched porn and say you are not fan of it. This is far more enough that you are biggest hypocrite in our society. Shame on you!
