Excitement has set in the B-town since the day the sensational porn star Sunny Leone landed in the city of dreams, Mumbai. While small screen’s TRPs are gradually shooting up owing to the hottie’s entry in the reality show Bigg Boss’s (Season 5) House, another gossip which has grabbed maximum attention is Sunny’s offer of Mahesh Bhatt’s ‘Jism 2’.

Going by sizzling, oomph factor of the porn star, wagging tongues might wonder if Bhatt is trying to create hype as well as attract audience by making Sunny play the film’s lead. But the filmmaker rubbished it by giving a thoughtful reason. Remarked Bhatt in an interview, “I am not casting her for her body, but I see that there is loneliness and a heartbroken soul behind that smile. The entertainment business itself is not a cakewalk, so the porn business would have been a really tough ride for her. ”

Bhatt further added that he loved casting people who are real and who have gone through highs and lows to reach a stature where people look up to them for their hard work. It can be recalled, that his film ‘Jism’ released in 2003 made debutants John Abraham and Bipasha Basu an overnight success in Bollywood.

As a matter of fact, Bhatt has admitted to have also approached Bipasha Basu and Mallika Sherawat for the role in the Jism sequel, but has said that things didn’t work out.

However, whether Sunny will accept this offer or not, only time will tell.... Till then stay tuned..
