After Hate Story 2, Jay Bhanushali has signed another film — this time opposite porn star Sunny Leone. The film also stars Pizza actor Akshay Oberoi. Titled Leela, choreographer Ahmed Khan is the producer, and his brother Bobby Khan directs it.

Says Jay, “After Hate Story 2, I have been receiving several offers. I used to play the cute boy on television and I’ve been given a new image of a hot boy. I play a singer in Leela and have a completely new look for the audience.”

Buzz is that Richa Chadda and Himanshu Soni (Zee TV’s Buddha), have both turned down films with Sunny because of her image. What are Jay’s thoughts on the matter, “For me, the script is the biggest hero. People will see me in a new avatar and this film will change the image of every person working in it.”

Three’s a charm?
This will be Sunny’s third film with TV stars. She is doing Tina and Lolo with Karishma Tanna and Patel Rap with Ram Kapoor.
