Check out Sunny Leone's reaction to Prasoon Joshi's comments about her porn career

Joshi had earlier said: “'I don't support Sunny Leone's past profession and I don't even want the youth to get inspired by that. But it is also not acceptable to take someone up to the well for this. If the person is a drug dealer, that's the person's personal choice."

A lot has been said about Sunny Leone’s porn career particularly since her interview with Bhupendra Chaubey. Aamir Khan had said: “I think Sunny conducted herself with a lot of grace and dignity in this interview.... I wish I could have said the same about the interviewer.And yes Sunny, I will be happy to work with you. I have absolutely no problems with your "past", as the interviewer puts it. Stay blessed. Cheers.”

Rishi Kapoor had called the questioning ‘unfair and rude’ while Anushka Sharma called it a ‘distasteful interview’. But, lyricist Prasoon Joshi had a different take on the issue. At an event to celebrate 10 years of Rang De Basanti, he said that he was not in the habit of insulting a person publicly, but that that did not mean that he was in favour of Leone's past profession.

When the Indian Express asked he what she thought of the comments she said: “I don’t know who Prasoon Joshi is, I will Google him.”  

Joshi had earlier said: “'I don't support Sunny Leone's past profession and I don't even want the youth to get inspired by that. But it is also not acceptable to take someone up to the well for this. If the person is a drug dealer, that's the person's personal choice. Will I disrespect the person? No! Will I insult the person publicly? No! That probably my culture doesn't allow. But at the same time, I wouldn't encourage the profession either. Certain professions don't play a constructive role in bringing up a great society, we need to criticise them as well. I think that's a free society, people have choices to make. But if the choices are not great, then we need to criticise. I think we need to draw a fine line; it is not such a black and white subject.”
