After her controversial part in "Big Boss 5", the popular Indian reality television show, Indo-Canadian adult film star Sunny Leone was reported as having signed up for Bollywood film-maker Mahesh Bhatt's forthcoming film "Jism 2".

Since then, Sunny has been becoming rather popular among entertainment circles in the country... even in the conservative city of Kolkata. However, the reason for her popularity may not, perhaps, be to her taste.

Apparently, Sunny's pornographic films are in great demand. The CDs, priced at an average of $2 - $3, have found quite a few buyers! According to the vendors, the increase in numbers of buyers has even prompted the release of compilation or best-of pack of CDs!

"Ever since she entered 'Bigg Boss', demand for her porn films has gone up. I sell around 20 CDs and DVDs a day on an average. Priced at Rs.70 (approx. $1.42) each, they are 'original' Sunny Leone movies," a vendor was quoted as saying by Zee News.

"In one, she is a pizza delivery girl and has her encounters during one such delivery. In another, she is a schoolteacher who has all sorts of orgies. Both are very popular," added the vendor.

There is, meanwhile, more news swirling around the star.

She is rumored to have agreed to pose nude, at some point during the film, for "Jism 2". It need hardly be added that should such a scene, in fact, be shot... and passed by the notoriously sensitive Censor Board of India, the film should do extremely well at the box office and be able to mark up its price when approached for distribution on the country's television networks. Then, of course, there are the new CDs that will no doubt be sold.

Finally, the adult film star was also in the news recently for trying to learn Hindi for her Bollywood debut. The latest buzz, however, is that Mahesh Bhatt is planning to rope in a dubbing artist to do all the hard work for Sunny.
