It's been a fairytale journey for Sunny Leone. From the queen of the adult-content scene to a Bollywood femme fatale playing Ragini, Leela and sundry title roles, Leone has come a long way. Now with a prestigious documentary on her life, things couldn't get better for the actress who began her Bollywood journey with Pooja Bhatt's Jism 2.

You are now the subject of a documentary by Dilip Mehta..

Well, our shooting has wrapped and it was a great experience. We explored parts of my life that I have buried for many years. I want this documentary to tell the truth. Both Dilip and I were on the same page with this.

What was your initial reaction when he approached you?

Dilip was chosen by the production company and that is how we met. I was very excited about working with someone who has so much experience with the world, with people and film. The first meeting was great. We agreed about making a truthful documentary. His concerns were that he wanted the same and did not want me to hold back emotionally in any way and to basically surrender my life's story to him. With the good, the bad and the ugly.

Any reservations about the project?

Of course I am putting myself out there to the world in a way that I have never done before. I hope that when people watch it, they see the struggle and the triumphs I have faced. It has not been easy.

Did you feel you might be projected in an unflattering light?

I believe I will be projected in exactly the way I put myself out there to the world. This is not a docu to make me look good or bad, it's a docu that explains my story in the truest way possible.

Your journey from adult content to Bollywood...how would you describe this fairytale voyage?

That it's been no fairly tale but a dramatic journey. (Laughs) There have been many ups and many downs and I hope this is only the beginning.
