Sunny Leone's 'Workout Song': The latest feeble attempt at exploiting her porn star image
Sunny Leone's post adult films career has been suffering from an ailment that can be best described as 'Sunnyploitation' where every filmmaker is hell-bent on Sunny playing herself.
The term 'exploitation film' is often used to refer to films that try to ride a current trend and get cheap thrills. Some common examples down the centuries, are Blaxploitation (films made for black audiences starring black actors), Nazisploitation (Nazi Exploitation films), sexploitation and slasher films.
A similar wave existed in Bollywood during Amitabh Bachchan's tenure as the 'Angry Young Man' while post-Dabaang, many Bollywood films can be termed as 'Bhaiploitation'! Salman Khan's Dabaang showed how a Khan, a heroine half his age and items songs were all that was needed for a film to break box office records.
Similarly, Sunny Leone's post adult films career has been suffering from an ailment that can be best described as 'Sunnyploitation' where every filmmaker is hell-bent on Sunny playing herself. In all her Bollywood films so far, including Jism 2, Jackpot, Ragini MMS 2, Ek Paheli Leela and Kuch Kuch Locha Hai, she has been cast as a seductress.
The makers, for reasons known best to them, decided that all that was needed was to hint at Miss Leone's previous career and decided to do away with mundane things like plots, story lines and scripts. The same ailment is present in this Sunny Leone video, masquerading as a workout song.
The lyrics are insane and cringe-worthy and consists of words like: “Sunny hai super super, fit hai neeche say upar, wanna be her, stretch yourself and move your body.” Or: “Sun le sun le tu aja, fitness ke duniya mein aaja!” The work out video shows Sunny doing a variety of things like twisting, stretching, kicking, doing push-ups and crunches.
Of course, Sunny Leone looks hot as always, but the singers joining in the workout, ruins that as well. I can't imagine anyone being pumped up if they heard this song playing in the gym.
In some ways, one almost feels that Ms Leone's previous career was more scripted and thought out than her Bollywood innings so far. Honestly, I hope someone at least gives her a decent script to see if she can play any other character.
