Sunny Leone says she loves her life the way it is

Former adult film star Sunny Leone's life is all set to become a film titled Karenjit Kaur - The Untold Story of Sunny Leone. The film will document the actress' life from being a little girl to becoming an adult film star and later to a popular Bollywood actress.

Leone was born into a middle class Sikh family in Canada and she received a lot of hate mails and criticism for her choice to become an adult film star.

"Many people have the misconception that people started criticizing me when I decided to come to India, but that is not true," she told IANS in an interview. "I started getting hate mails and criticism when I was around 21 years old. So it has nothing to do with the country, but society in general. That was the first time I faced real hatred," said the mother of three.

Talking about how her family reacted to her choices, Leone said there was a moment when she was emotionally vulnerable. But she loves the way her life has turned out to be.

"Reverse psychology always happens and that was definitely the case with me and my parents," she said regarding how her family reacted to the hate she received. "They were thinking that if they forcefully stop me, I might just gain more curiosity and then I might not return from that world.

"Of course, I went to a different direction that my parents did not want me to... But I want to say that I love my life the way it is and everything happens for a reason. I have no complaints."

Leone came to India with Bigg Boss, a reality show, following which she landed a role in Bollywood flick Jism 2. Since then, Leone has appeared in several films such as Ragini MMS 2, Ek Paheli Leela, Mastizaade, One Night Stand and Tera Intezaar. Television reality shows she has appeared in include  MTV Splitsvilla, Box Cricket League: Season 2 and Man vs. Wild with Sunny Leone.
