Sunny Leone says 'I hated showing my legs when I was younger', reveals how she embraced body positivity

Getting older is also about getting wiser, and making peace with the insecurities you once had about yourself. For actor Sunny Leone, one of the things she has learnt to love about herself that she once tried to hide, has to do with her legs! Sunny Leone shares her body positivity story.(Sunny Leone) In an interview to HT Lifestyle, Sunny Leone reveals: "When I was younger, I hated my legs. I think it's because I was a lighter-skinned Indian girl going to an all-white, predominantly white school with other girls who had lighter hair. And I had dark, Punjabi, dark, thick hair. And I hated showing my legs." What led to body positivity? "As I got older, I realized that, 'Hey, this is not so bad.' And I actually enjoy wearing shorts or a little skirt. That was one thing that I definitely hid. But now, I don't. I'm very comfortable with my body," explains Sunny, who has been nonchalant about flaunting her legs in her famous songs Baby Doll and Pink Lips. At 44, Sunny Leone is enjoying life with her husband and their three children Nisha, Noah and Asher. Her skin glows owing to her healthy diet and skincare habits. With ageing becoming less of a taboo in beauty conversations, we asked Sunny about her take on using cosmetic treatments to maintain skin health and confidence. Here's what she says: "As far as anti-aging goes, most people are always trying to fight the clock. It's about when you look in the mirror as you age, do you like what you see? And if you don't, then I am very liberal... I think if you want to change something, change something. If something makes you feel good - injections, fillers, certain lasers, procedures, tightening, fixing, cutting, sewing it back together, you should definitely do what makes you happy." However, she has a word of caution. "Just make sure that you do your research with the proper doctor, because I have learned the hard way that if you are not comfortable with a doctor, the results can be horrendous and fixing that can take a lot of time. So, make sure you know who you're going to and you trust them," she adds. But as someone constantly in the public eye, how does she protect her sense of self-worth from the expectations of 'looking perfect'? Sunny has a simple formula: "I just make sure that I feel good. I try my best to eat good or eat clean and healthy. Certain things you put in your body definitely show on the outward." Meat is one of those things for Sunny Leone, who is a supporter of People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA). "I think that the amount of hormones and preservatives and things that go into meat products or animal products, is something that's not good for me and I will not go down that route. Eating clean and exercising is definitely a good way to begin your path towards feeling good or whatever your perfect is," she says.

‘I'm Sorry, I Don't Have The Money': Suneel Darshan On Why He Took Sunny Deol To Court

Suneel Darshan opens up on his fallout with Sunny Deol, claiming broken trust, unpaid dues, and a court battle that continues to this day. For years, filmmaker Suneel Darshan has been open about his rifts with Bollywood stars. Now, he has spoken once again about his bitter fallout with Sunny Deol – claiming money, trust, and promises were all broken in the process. Darshan recalled his very first collaboration with Sunny on Ajay (1996), which he described as 'a very bad experience." The problem, he said, began with the film's overseas distribution. 'He was supposed to pay me a certain amount as he had acquired the rights for Ajay's distribution overseas. Then he turned up saying, 'It's Christmas time, so the banks in the UK are shut. I'll definitely pay you later.' When the opportunity came later, he said, 'I'm sorry, I don't have the money, but I intend to pay you. Please help me,'" Darshan told Bollywood Hungama. The director added that Sunny had asked for his support during Barsaat (1995) too, and so he trusted him once again. 'If he doesn't have a bad memory, he should remember it," Darshan said, pointing out that despite helping the actor, the respect was never returned. Instead of settling the dues, Sunny allegedly promised to work in another project. Darshan said the script he pitched – which later became Jaanwar (1999) – was rejected. 'He said he was not comfortable with the subject and wanted me to work more on it. I said, 'This is a lie.' Soon after, certain untoward incidents happened, which left me shocked. That's when we decided not to work together again." According to Darshan, Sunny then assured him that the money would come back with interest, but it never happened. The case eventually went to court. 'Then Sunny went and told the court that he didn't have the liquidity to pay me, so he said he would do a film with me again, which the court felt was the best way to solve the issue. Much against my wishes, I gave in to it. There were some terms and conditions, and he flouted them. Only after putting in a year's worth of effort and money did I realise that the intent was suspicious. Thus, I walked out of that project and approached a division bench court. It's pending there now," Darshan revealed. Looking back, Darshan said his disappointment ran deeper because he had known Sunny even before he was an actor. 'When you put someone on a pedestal and then that image falls, it is more than just a momentary loss," he concluded. view comments First Published: August 18, 2025, 08:04 IST Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
