Adult film star-turned-Bollywood actress Sunny Leone, who is often a target of sexist and disparaging remarks by people, said she is disturbed when “nonsense” gets highlighted.
“I always try to push negativity aside, but there are some things which I can’t because I am also a human and I have feelings. “I get disturbed when the media exaggerates and highlights things that they know is nonsense and can hurt people. If radical, violent groups are not given attention then maybe this world would be a better place to live in,” Sunny says.
Sometimes, she even has to answer “judgmental as well as misogynistic” questions thrown at her by journalists. “I always like to give the journalist the benefit of the doubt; but I have worked up the courage to throw something back at them. I know how to make them equally feel uncomfortable or really bad. So then it stops there usually.”
