Recently Dilip Mehta directed documentary on Sunny Leone was
premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, which she was didn’t
attend due to a family function. However
she also doesn’t want her life documentary to be release in India.
You must be thinking here why Sunny Leone is not in the favour
of release of the upcoming documentary on her life, Mostly Sunny in India.
The real reason is that she feels the documentary is not
doing justice to her part of story. She further added it is less of a film portraying
her life but more of "somebody else's opinion" about her.
The Journey of Sunny starts as a girl, Karenjit Kaur Vohra
born in a conservative Sikh family in
Sarnia, Ontario, her appearance as one of the biggest adult movie stars in the
world to the main frame actress in Bollywood.
"I
hope it doesn't come to India. Because that's not the story that is mine. This
is somebody else's opinion, somebody else's vision. No one has a right to tell
your life story except for you," Leone told PTI in an
exclusive interview.
"Its
not a biopic made on my life where you can manipulate and say what you want. It
is not like you are appealing to cinematic liberty. This is somebody's life.
This is my life, I take it very personally," she
added.
Dilip Mehta, the director of the documentary said he was
pretty surprised on the Sunny’s behavior before the premiere as she demanded
few changes in the documentary.
On asking about this, Leone said, "It's really simple, at
the end of the day, its my personal story. I surrendered to his vision but when
it got to my story, how it looks and the story that is actually told... In my
view no one in this entire world has the right to say how my life should be
told."
"I
am the one telling the story, it is my life. There were certain things I didn't
like and I wanted it (the documentary) to be for many people to watch, not just
one age group. I don't see my story as a sob story, where something went wrong.
That's not my story," the actress said.
