2016 will be year of adult comedies in Bollywood: Sunny Leone

Sunny Leone, who has gone from being a globally popular adult film star to a Bollywood actress, says 2016 will be a year of adult comedies in Bollywood, with films like "Kya Kool Hain Hum 3", "Mastizaade" and "Great Grand Masti", lined up for release.

Sunny, along with her "Mastizaade" co-star Vir Das, was present at a press conference to promote their film in Mumbai on Tuesday.

Here, on being asked how "Mastizade" is different from other films of the same genre, that are also lined up for the release, Sunny said: "I think that 2016 is going to be the year of adult comedies. We have three films coming back-to-back and I think these movies are going to set a standard of comedy."

In "Mastizaade", Sunny will be seen in a double role as Laila and Lily. The actress says she found it more difficult to portray the role of Laila.

"Being Laila (was tougher). It's what everybody has seen me like. She is glamorous and a bombshell type girl. And then playing Lily was easy for me as Lily is closer to my actual personality, which is quirky and clumsy," she said.

Directed by Milap Zaveri, "Mastizaade" also stars Tusshar Kapoor in the lead role. The film is slated to release on January 29 next year.
