Jism 2 star Sunny Leone and her husband Daniel Weber have been married for over a year now, after being in a relationship for five years. Daniel, a guitarist from Los Angeles, is now Sunny's business manager and heads their joint production company.
Sunny was recently quoted saying that no script is offered to her without Daniel's permission and that she would not sign any contract without making him read it. Apparently, Sunny couldn't understand the scripts which were given to her, although they were specifically written in English. So, Daniel would always be the first one to read it.
Although Daniel and Sunny produce adult films abroad, they do not plan to venture into producing Bollywood films anytime soon. Sunny will next be seen in the Ekta Kapoor's sequel to the 2011 Raj Kumar Yadav-Kainaz Motivala starrer Ragini MMS.
When the final outcome of 'Jism 2' would be recorded, the results would show in green. Riding high on the moolah that it gained on an extraordinary weekend, the film today stays on as the highest grossing film (over 40 crores worldwide collections) for a woman centric film featuring a debutant actress. This makes it third straight female centric success in a row after 'The Dirty Picture' and 'Kahaani'. Though it would be sacrilege to place Sunny Leone in the league of Vidya Balan, the voluptuous lady says that she is not turning her back to Bollywood any soon.
"When I stepped into Bollywood, I had no idea what would happen. Though it was not about me just stepping into the zone just for trial sake, I took it up because the opportunity came my way. Today when Pooja and Bhatt saab are telling me about the collections, it is an absolutely amazing feeling. I know that I am here to stay. There would be more movies for sure in next couple of years. In fact I should be beginning my next film soon", says Sunny who had made a whirlwind trip to Mumbai a week before the release of the film.
While today she is happy that Bhatts gave her an opportunity to enter mainstream cinema, one wonders whether she is equally happy to have had Randeep Hooda and Arunoday Singh for company as the male leads. Though Randeep has still escaped unscathed after the release of the film and has also been hailed as the best part of the film by few, Arunoday has met with quite some criticism.
"I trusted Pooja's judgement on who she wanted in the film", says Sunny, "It was her film and she carried certain vision. It was entirely her prerogative on which actors suited the film best. I was okay with whoever co-star I would have got. In any case I am new to the industry and can't really differentiate one from another."
However the news goes that she had asked for medical certificates of Randeep and Arunoday before she stepped into the film.
Laughs Sunny, "I don't really know where this thing came from. I haven't really seen an article stating so I don't really know what was said or written."
Well Sunny, welcome to Bollywood!

Adult sensation Sunny Leone is all set to mark her debut in Bollywood, with Bhatt Camps erotic thriller Jism 2. The Indo-Canadian porn star in a candid tete-a-tete revealed that she admires quite a few Bollywood stars.
When quizzed who is her favourite star in Bollywood, Leone said, "I like Hrithik Roshan right now, he is really cute. Among the actresses, I feel Priyanka Chopra is drop dead gorgeous and same with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, I think she is so beautiful. They are very inspiring, I look at them and think wow those two people work so hard, they are everywhere,"
Well, we are sure these three actors will feel quite elated, when they hear what the hottie has to say about them.
Indo-Canadian adult star Sunny Leone will mark her debut in Bollywood with Pooja Bhatt's Jism 2 and the actress is all praise for her co-stars Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda.
Sunny reveals that while Hooda is a serious actor, Arunoday is more fun. "Randeep is a very serious actor and he is very dedicated to his job, he gets you in the mood before you are in the mood because he is so much into his character, which is a good thing. It's rarely that you see somebody like that," said the 31-year-old star.
"Arunoday is a goofball, we would have so much fun on the sets and laugh and play and then be very serious for the scenes and as soon as it was over and Pooja was happy with that cut, we used to give each other a high-five (laughs)," said Sunny, about Singh.
Sequel to 2003, hit film Jism, Jism 2 will hit the theaters on August 3, 2012.
When an adult star says that 'too much sex can be bad', it may come as a surprise for quite a few and Sunny Leone can be seen saying this, in her latest advertisement for PETA. In her latest ad campaign for PETA, Sunny is seen advocating sterilization of pets. The Indo-Canadian porn star can be seen winking seductively in the ad, whioch asks the public to sterelise their cats and dogs.
Through the ad Leone wants people to know that the only way to control homeless animal crisis is by getting their pets spayed or neutered. "I believe in not buying, and adopting. And it's because there are so many dogs out there that need a home, that can't find a home, that were abused, that were left on the streets. They just need that love, and if you can rescue an animal, then that's the greatest gift you can give," said Leone, in an exclusive interview to PETA.
"I believe that every single dog should be spayed and neutered. You don't want to continue the cycle of homeless dogs or cats. And spaying and neutering also keeps them healthy. It prevents them from having different diseases that they can get if they are not," she further added.
Meanwhile Sunny is also gearing up for the release of her Bollwood debut Jism 2, which will hit the theaters this weekend.
Sunny Leone, who will mark her Bollywood debut with Jism 2, is all praise for her director Pooja Bhatt. Sunny recently returned to India from Los Angeles, to promote her upcoming erotic thriller.
Leone praised Pooja, while addressing the media saying ''Pooja is very very hardworking and she paid attention to every single little detail, made sure every shot was perfect.''
“As a director and an actress she has the ability to know what it takes to get that certain feeling or emotion that she went through or she knows as an actor, what it's like to be in the position that you are in. You are sending them (the actors) in front of the camera. She knows what it feels like, so it's something you relate to,” the adult star further added.
Sunny is excited about the release of her maiden Bollywood venture, which also features Arunoday Singh and Randeep Hooda in the lead roles.
Adult entertainment star Sunny Leone, who landed in Mumbai on the weekend for the promotions of her upcoming film Jism 2, seemed quite excited to be in India once again and was very flattered at all the attention that she received after she landed.
However, Leone, who has been in the eye of a media storm ever since the trailers of Jism 2 went viral, said quite modestly, "I know that I have been the centre of attention but my Jism 2 co-stars and also my director Pooja Bhatt deserve equal attention because they have done a great job with the film." She also went on to say that she is quite new to the film industry but is determined to work hard and do good work.
Sunny Leone, who was roped in for the role by the Bhatts after seeing her in reality show Bigg Boss, will be seen playing the role of a porn star, who is hired for a honey-trap mission by an intelligence agent to trap an elusive assassin. The film also stars Randeep Hooda and Arunoday Singh and releases this weekend.
Sunny Leone is all set to illumine the silver screen with her bold Bollywood debut Jism 2, however she won't be the only scorcher to set the screens ablaze on August 3, 2012. Bengal belle Bipasha Basu will give her company by sharing the platform.
The trailer of Basu's upcoming horror flick Raaz 3, will be unveiled with Pooja Bhatt's Jism 2. Raaz 3 stars Emraan Hashmi and Esha Gupta alongside Bipasha and will hit the theaters on September 7, this year.
Sequel to 2003 erotic thriller Jism, Jism 2 features Randeep Hooda and Arunoday Singh in the lead roles alongside Leone.
Canadian reality television star Sunny Leone, who is making her debut in the Pooja Bhatt film Jism 2, has been roped in as the guest judge on India's Got Talent.
The show will be hosted by Manish Paul and Cyrus Sahukar, and her co-judges will be Riteish Deshmukh and Kirron Kher.
Sunny will be replacing Sonali Bendre as the judge. She is expected to arrive in India to begin shooting for her second film, produced by Ekta Kapoor.
Central protagonist of Jism 2, Sunny Leone, has been seen by one and all in a far more risqué avtar over the internet. One wonders how do the Bhatts presume that her big screen venture would be as enticing where people would want to 'pay' for a dekko of Sunny when her downloads are easily available.
"What else then explains lakhs of hits that the promos and songs have already fetched already? Audience is still curious about Sunny despite seeing her in hardcore videos. That's human psychology coming into play and that's the reason why she is catching everyone's attention. Also, it says a lot about the film as a whole because people are not stupid to pay money for watching something that they can do free of charge on their computers", says Pooja Bhatt.
While to feature her videos online are understandable, don't Bhatts think that audience may feel a tad cheated once they watch her in reasonable clothing on the big screen? After all, porn can't be played on the big screen and there is bound to be a curb on the explicit content, courtesy the film going through the Censor board scanner.
"When you adhere to the Indian censor board guidelines, you can never ever go to the extent of bringing on sexual titillation which is already available online for the consumer. It is impossible to get that kind of imagery. So what do you do? You make a cocktail where you have someone like Sunny along with a definite story and a narrative as well", details the senior Bhatt, "This means that while we have an adult movie actress as one of the important components of the film, she is after all a part of it and not a whole."
Well, we would like to see what does this Cocktail have to offer eventually once the film hits the screens on 3rd August.
