Sunny Leone has revealed how she bagged the role in Kennedy which premiered at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival.

The actress who has hit headlines due to her Cannes debut said: “Even though I had not done an audition in a long time I was confident about delivering my lines but I was super nervous thinking what if they don’t like me.”

She further said: “The best thing that happened after he started showing people this film while it was still in the edit is that people who had never spoken to me till now would walk up to me and say oh we saw Kennedy and we really liked your part.”

“Even if nothing else come out of this festival he (Anurag Kashyap) has provided me with so much love, care and respect that I’m forever thankful for it,” the Jism 2 actress added.

While talking about how she prepared herself for Charlie's role, Sunny Leone shared: “Anurag Sir wanted me to have this particular laugh . I think we all know people who hide behind their laugh and smile.”

“Who makes you feel like everything is fine whereas they are breaking inside. I can relate to this. I understood her character. After everything that has happened to me in the last 10 years, the judgments and comments… people see me from and think I’m super confident, someone who is not insecure, who doesn’t feel bad about trolls but they forget I’m human too and these things do affect you,” the Ragini MMS actress continued.
