BOLLYWOOD: The Babydoll hottie Sunny Leone turned 33 on Tuesday with a quiet night with her husband. No birthday party for Sunny.
Laughs the former Indo-Canadian porn star, “I was tucked into bed by 10 pm. That’s how I brought in my birthday. Boring? What to do? I landed a night before from LA and was heavily jet-lagged. I shot the whole day on the day before my birthday and then crashed out . At midnight someone was knocking on the door with a huge bouquet of flowers from a friend. So that was nice. Then I woke up to a relaxed session of working-out after which I left for shooting again. It’s an ideal way to spend a special day.”
Sunny recalls her childhood birthdays. “My mother would always bake me a cake for my birthdays. For one of my birthdays she baked me a Barbie cake. That’s every girl’s dream. I remember my 13th birthday. All my school friends came for a party. I got a tape of music of my favourite music bands and other fun gifts. I had the most loving parents who showered me with love on my birthday. I missed them the most on my birthday. I think of them everyday.”
Sunny considers her husband Daniel Weber to be the best gift of her life. “And he brings me the gifts that I like. He gifted me a diamond and emerald necklace this birthday which he got specially designed for me. I feel blessed to have a husband who heaps me with gifts. We’ve been together for six years now. We’ve been married for three years. Our love hasn’t diminished. How have we made it last so long? Beyond being my husband and lover, he is my best friend.We’ve seen the best of times and the worst of times together. I can consult him about anything, any problem. He is always there for me. I can lean o him for anything, no matter how silly.”
Going into a flashback of her courtship Sunny remembers, “We met in Las Vegas. He was based in New York. I didn’t think at that time that anything would come of our relationship because we lived in different cities. But Daniel doesn’t give up easily. He bombarded me with flowers chocolates and gifts all over the world wherever I happened to be. He would fly in from anywhere in the world to meet me.”
And now, “I am happy to be here in India. I am happy to be working here in India. My film Ragini MMS 2 is a success and the song ‘Baby Doll’ greets me everywhere I go. How does it feel? How do you think it feels?” she laughs out loud.
Then sobering Sunny sighs, “Very honestly it’s like a dream come true. I’ve been getting so much love from my fans all over the world. More than anything else, it’s their love that has made it all happen.”
Sunny’s career is going great guns. “I am so fortunate to get a song like Babydoll. It has become like my personal anthem.I am happy I’ve a song so successful for people to dance to.”
Sunny gets a lot of offers to do item songs. “ I’ve been getting a lot of those not only now but since I came in. I couldn’t do many of them. But the songs that I’ve done so far have been well received.”
For this former Indo-Canadian porn star, her next release is Tina & Lolo. “It’s very different from my other films so far. After that I’ve Pritish Nandy Communication’s Mastizade. That too gives me a chance to go beyond what I’ve done so far.”
Sunny Leone’s birthday wishes: “I just want a happy home with my husband. I am not a party girl. I don’t have too many friends. I spend all my time in the studios and then I am home. That’s why I went to sleep at 10 pm on the eve of my birthday.”
