After all, Sunny boasts of featuring in a score of hit musical tracks, be it “Baby Doll” from Ragini MMS 2 or “Laila Main Laila” opposite King Khan, Shah Rukh Khan in 2017’s Raees. Born on May 13, 1981, in Canada’s Ontario as Karenjit Kaur Vohra, Sunny is an Indian-American actress, model and entrepreneur. A former adult star, the 38-year-old has made a mark in the Indian entertainment industry. So, we have decided to celebrate Sunny Leon’s 38th birthday looking at some of the best songs of hers. EXCLUSIVE! Sunny Leone’s Birthday Plans Revealed.
Before we proceed with listing down Sunny Leone songs, let us tell you a bit about the bold and beautiful star as she turns a year older. After having a successful career in the adult entertainment industry, she turned her attention towards mainstream cinema industry. In the year 2011, she participated in the Indian reality series Bigg Boss 5. Sunny caught the attention of filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt who offered her the lead role in Jism 2 (he had written it, while his daughter Pooja Bhatt directed it). The film despite receiving forgettable reviews from critics, fared well at the box office. Jism 2 soundtrack was highly appreciated, especially the song “Abhi Abhi Toh Mile Ho” by Shreya Ghoshal, Akriti Kakkar and KK remain a favourite till date. Two years later, Sunny had the biggest success of her career – Ragini MMS 2. We will talk about the song that continues to be the party anthem, years after its release below along with other chartbusters featuring Sunny Leone.
1. Baby Doll Main Sone Di
You can call this song as a turning point in Sunny Leone’s career here in India. Sung by Kanika Kapoor along with Meet Bros, “Baby Doll Main Sone Di” from her 2014 film Ragini MMS 2 became an instant hit. The peppy lyrics, Kanika’s voice and Sunny’s charm – made this such a crowd-pulling musical number.
2. Laila Main Laila
Dancing with Shah Rukh Khan, Bollywood’s King of Romance is a dream for many and it came true for Sunny with 2017’s Rahul Dholakia-film Raees. In the time and age when refurbished songs of old classics are a big pain to hear or watch, Sunny did a good job to recreate Zeenat Aman’s original song. Pawni Pandey sung the reprised version on which Sunny and Shah Rukh grooved together.
3. Desi Look
If you can get past the silly portrayal of Sunny Leone as Victoria's Secret Angel, the song is not all that bad. “Desi Look” is from Ek Paheli Leela, which released in 2015. And it brings the “Baby Doll” team of Sunny and Kanika together much to our delight.
4. Chaar Botal Vodka
The song is everything you can expect from a Yo Yo Honey Singh rap/song – nonsense, quirky rhymes but this silliness is what makes “Chaar Botal Vodka” such a fit for your night out with pals. BTW, this is also from Ragini MMS 2, which did not become a big hit as “Baby Doll Main Sone Di”.
5. Laila Teri Le Legi
Another item song that featured Sunny Leone as Laila is “Laila Teri Le Legi” from 2014 film Shootout At Wadala. It had Sunny dance and seduce Bollywood’s muscular hunk, John Abraham. Interestingly, in both Raees and Shootout at Wadala, Sunny is seducing gangsters – be it SRK as Raees Alam or John as Manya Surve. “Laila Teri Le Legi” is sung by Sunidhi Chauhan, Mika Singh and Anand Raaj Anand.
We had a difficult time selecting our top five Sunny Leone songs. While we could not take all, there are few honourable mentions such as “Saiyaan Superstar” from Ek Paheli Leela, “Kabhi Jo Badal Barse” from Jackpot, and “Pink Lips” from Hate Story 2. We wish Sunny Leone, a very Happy Birthday.
