Ram Gopal Varma made Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon with his muse Antara Mali playing the wannabe Dixit. No one batted an eyelid.

But it is not going to be easy for Kanti Shah, the sleaze specialist behind ‘cult’ films like Loha and Gunda and horrors like Khooni Shaitaan, Pyaasa Haiwaan, Khooni Bhootni, MMS Kand and Sapna Ki Jawani. His new film is called, hold your breath, Main Sunny Leone Banna Chahti Hoon. Apparently, it is the story of a virgin who becomes a top porn star.

Sunny and her husband Daniel Weber are neither amused nor flattered. While they refused to comment on this unauthorised homage to Sunny, sources close to the couple say they plan to take legal action against Shah for using her name without permission.

“Making Main Sunny Leone Banna Chahti Hoon is not the same thing as Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon.We all know the difference,” says a source close to Sunny.
