The Untold Truth: Is Sunny just an 'Erotic Showpiece'?

Home > Bollywood News > Titbits

Well it's been almost two years since Sunny has debuted in the Bollywood. And ever-since then this gorgeous stunner is trying very hard to establish herself as a mainstream actress. But all her efforts seem to be going in vein straightaway. And that's because, be it `Jism 2", "Jackpot" or her ad stints, every time we have seen, Sunny being casted as more of a prurient doll by the makers.


When Sunny was presented by Bhatts in "Jism 2", at that time it looked quite conspicuous by the character description of, Sunny that makers are more concerned about cashing upon her porn star image.


Post that Sunny appeared in "Jackpot", but even there she looked more of like a sensual showpiece implanted to add to the erotic coefficient of the movie. And now it's horror erotica, `Ragini MMS 2" making its way to the big screen.


But if we go by the first trailer of "Ragini MMS 2" which is touted to be the first horror-erotica of Indian cinema, it looks like nothing has changed for Sunny.

After seeing the trailer of this Balaji cine venture, it becomes quite ostensible, that by decorating "Ragini MMS 2" with a heavy dose of lewd content despite tagging it as horror flick, movie's producer, Ekta Kapoor has thoroughly tried to cash upon the globally talked about sex appeal of Sunny.


So after witnessing so many instances of Sunny's being projected as a sexy seductress in various cine flicks, one thing seems to be for sure that our Bollywooders are least concerned about her acting prowess and are somewhere down the line madly hooked to the habit of cashing upon porn star image of, Sunny.

Now after seeing this huge fixation of Bollywooders to the prurient image of, Sunny, and her another action thriller "Tina and Lolo" in the offing, let's just keep our fingers crossed in the hope that in the days ahead, let this fascination of our cine literati for Sunny's porn star persona ends, and fans get a chance to see this voluptuous beauty in more meaningful roles than just being a carnal delight.

Kangana Ranaut 'Queen' to the core..

Kangana Ranaut has amazed the audience with her de-glam look, donning simple salwar-suits to portray the role of 'Rani', in Viacom 18 Motion Pictures' upcoming film, 'Queen'. The actor helped the makers in shaping up the character of 'Rani'. Her look in the film is similar to her real-life look, when she used to live in Manali.

Director Vikas Bahl said, `I wanted to make a film on a simple character. I think simple characters have bigger journeys.` Rani's journey takes her to Paris on her honeymoon, all alone. On this solo trip, as she meets new people, she rediscovers life. Designers Manoshi & Rushi were responsible for the styling of the characters in the film.


Being from a small-town herself, Kangana could easily relate to her character. Designer Rushi says, `Kangana comes from a small town. So, when we gave her the salwar-kameez and churidars. She said 'Oh! I use to wear this when I was in 11th and 12th standard!` Talking about Kangana's look, Designer Manoshi said `Clothes are specially designed and styled to make her look like 'Rani'. This is where Kangana really helped us out, and she looks beautiful in everything that you make her wear.`

Kangana's involvement played a vital role in evolving the character of 'Rani'. As Rushi rightly points out `Kangana is 'Queen'. She is Rani to the core.`


Presented by Viacom 18 Motion Pictures, Queen is a Phantom Production. The Kangana Ranaut starrer is directed by Vikas Bahl, and produced by Viacom18 Motion Pictures, Vikramaditya Motwane and Anurag Kashyap. Queen is scheduled for release on March 7, 2014.By Santa Banta News Network

Work comes first for Akki?

Despite his wife's medical emergency, actor Akshay Kumar chose to stick to his professional commitments

Akshay Kumar's wife, Twinkle Khanna, has been admitted in Breach Candy Hospital. The former actress and mother of two has been apparently diagnosed with kidney stone.

A source says that Twinkle, who was in pain all of Sunday morning, had to be rushed to the hospital for treatment. This development then threatened to jeopardise Akki's appearance at a derby event at Mahalaxmi Race Course. First, there was word that Akshay, who was scheduled to attend a fashion show at the derby on Sunday, had cancelled his appearance as he wished to be with Twinkle at the hospital.


But later it emerged that the actor had decided to honour his commitment to the brand he is an ambassador for (the brand is the title sponsor of the event).

Meanwhile, hospital sources say that it was Akshay who accompanied Twinkle to the hospital earlier on Sunday. Preliminary tests allegedly revealed that she had kidney stone and she has now been advised to go for surgery.

Now Kareena turns Paro?

Avant-garde director Sudhir Mishra is about to start his dream project. For years he has nurtured the dream of doing his own take on Saratchandra Chatterjee's classic Bengali novel Devdas, the agless tale of love loyalty and betrayal and self-destruction that has been treated in various eras by directors ad diverse as Bimal Roy,Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Anurag Kashyap.

Sudhir's take on Devdas has been ready for 8 years. He has now re-written the script and the film which goes on the floors shortly would be titled Har Khwahish Pe Dum Nikle.

Interestingly Sudhir intends to cast Kareena Kapoor in his film.Kareena and Sudhir Mishra had generated a sterling synthesis in Chameli. They were all set to come together again two years ago in Dhruv, the project to be produced by Farhan Akhtar and Ritesh Sidhavani with Farhan and Kareena in the lead.

But the film got shelved.


When contacted Sudhir said, `Yes ,I am making Har Khwahish Pe Dum Nikle next. I was actually finalizing another script as my next film. But I got stuck in it mid-way.So I looked at this other script which I had been nurturing for years. The time for doing my Devdas is now.As for the cast, it's too early to talk about whom I am will cast.`

Sudhir says his take on Devdas would be distinctly Shakespearean.

`In fact it would be more Shakespeare than Saratchandra,` admits Sudhir.

Har Khwahish Pe Dum Nikle has an interesting history. Sudhir Mishra initially planned to direct it for producer Pritish Nandy with Shiney Ahuja, Chitrangda and Lara Dutta vast as Devdas,Chandramukhi and Paro. The project later moved to Farhan under the title Dhruv with Farhan and Kareena in the lead.

Now Sudhir says he is all set to finally make the film .

`I have to get it out of my system. It's been swimming in my subconscious for too long,` says Sudhir.

Incidentally Kareena was at one point, to be cast as Paro in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Devdas.byy santa banta news network..

Deepika Padukone (left) stepped out in a sheer golden gown at a film awards event.

The very same outfit (albeit in a different colour) was spotted on British socialiate Lady Victoria Harvey at the Golden Globe awards earlier this month. The outfits are designed by Gaurav Gupta. Must say Deepika's version is more modest.
