Sunny Leone on her thriller film Shero: “I hope the audience gets spooked by my performance”

Few days ago, Sunny Leone took to social media to share the motion poster of Shero, her upcoming project. The poster featured a child sitting on a staircase and a bruised face of a woman with eerie music playing in the background. It generated a whole lot of intrigue among her fans who cannot wait to watch her in a brand-new avatar. 

Currently, Sunny is prepping to slip under the skin of her character in Shero. She has been doing workshops to learn languages and has been studying old classics. Talking about her prep for the film, she says in a statement shared by her team:

I have been watching and intensively researching on old psychological thrillers that have become cult classics. I have been analysing and studying Sadhana ji’s performance from Woh Kaun Thi?, Glen Close from Fatal Attraction, Janet Leigh from Psycho and Jodie Foster from The Silence Of The Lambs.

They are such terrific actors. Their performances will send chills down our spines. They are my reference points and I hope that the audience get spooked by my performance.

- Sunny Leone

The psychological thriller will see her playing a role that she has never played before and is surely going to be a testament to her versatility. Shero will be directed by Sreejith Vijayan and will be released in Tamil, Hindi, Telugu and Malayalam.
