Former adult actress Sunny Leone made a swift move into the Hindi film industry in 2012. And now the Indo-Canadian actress is all set to make her debut in a Tamil film. She says south Indian films would help her grow as a person and an actress.
Leone, whose real name is Karenjit Kaur Vohra, will be launched in the Tamil film industry with the upcoming film Veeramdevi, in which she will play a warrior princess.
“Being able to learn about a completely different culture is something that I like a lot and enjoy,” she said.
She added she was not worried about the language barrier.
“It will be challenging, but I am not worried about learning it for this film. I am actually very excited about this whole process,” she said. “The amount of effort that has gone into this character is amazing and I’m beyond excited to start shooting. I will be taking riding lessons... in Los Angeles and in India. And, of course, I will be attending workshops to learn Tamil.”
The actress does not want to limit herself to Hindi and south Indian films. She is interested in working in other regional language films as well.
“If a role comes my way that is interesting, then I definitely will,” she said.
