Bollywood sex icon apologizes after man is inadvertently bombarded by calls from her adoring fans | |
(about 2 hours later) | |
A popular Bollywood actress has apologized on behalf of her fans after a Delhi man was bombarded by hundreds of calls meant for the former adult-film star. | |
In the film Arjun Patiala, a character played by Bollywood sex icon Sunny Leone, calls out her fictional telephone number – a number which happens to belong to a non-fictional, very real 26-year-old named Puneet Agarwal. | |
Agarwal now receives more than 100 calls a day – the vast majority of which are from Indian men demanding to speak with Leone, a former porn star. | Agarwal now receives more than 100 calls a day – the vast majority of which are from Indian men demanding to speak with Leone, a former porn star. |
Asked about the unfortunate situation, Leone said she was “sorry” and speculated that there “must be some really interesting people calling” Agarwal. | |
But for Agarwal, a simply apology might not be enough. | |
“I don’t even dream anymore,” he said in an interview with the BBC. “The phone keeps ringing until four in the morning.” | “I don’t even dream anymore,” he said in an interview with the BBC. “The phone keeps ringing until four in the morning.” |

Fed-up and out of options, Agarwal has filed a petition to have his number removed from the film. He said that he hoped the film’s producers would comply with his request, avoiding a lawsuit. | Fed-up and out of options, Agarwal has filed a petition to have his number removed from the film.
