After winning numerous fans with her articulate and calm responses during a recent television interview that was criticised for for being biased and misogynistic, actress and producer Sunny Leone has received messages of support from various Bollywood stars, including Aamir Khan.
In the interview, journalist Bhupendra Chaubey had cited the name of actor Aamir Khan as someone who was reluctant to work with Leone because of her earlier work in the adult entertainment industry, but Khan not only complimented the actress for her graceful conduct during the interview, but also tweeted that he would be happy to work with the actress in future.
Film personalities such as Farah Khan, Vidya Balan, Rishi Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, Arshad Warsi and Shahid Kapoor also criticised the moralistic undertones of the interview, while praising the actress for her intelligent and thoughtful responses.

Sunny Leone displays far more dignity than these self appointed moral custodians of society.
