PIX: On the sets of Ek Paheli Leela, with Sunny Leone

Psst, all the shenanigans from the sets of Ek Paheli Leela revealed here!

Sunny Leone clearly had a blast while shooting for her upcoming film Ek Paheli Leela.

Don't believe us? Well, check these pictures out!


 

Clearly fashioned after the hugely popular Victoria Secret designs, the actress channels her inner sexy angel with a pair of hot pink wings and bejewelled lingerie.

 

 

And here is Sunny, playing the titular character in the film, rocking a hot pink bikini from her own bikini line.

The actress reportedly insisted on wearing a two-piece from her own collection when she learnt about the bikini sequence in the film.

The bikini is apparently a Valentine's Day gift from her husband Daniel Weber, who will also be seen in the film.

After locking Sunny’s look, similar pink bikinis were made for the background dancers too.

 

 

Complete with rustic accessories, kohl-lined eyes and big hair, Sunny wears a Rajasthani village belle look quite well.

Ek Paheli Leela, a nine-song musical, features Sunny in an all new avatar as a gorgeous princess.

Directed by Bobby Khan, the film will hit screens on April 10.

 

 

It wasn't all fun and games all the time though.

Sunny reportedly had an allergic reaction while shooting certain scenes in the hay and while fetching water from a pond in Rajasthan.

While the shooting was stalled for a few hours, the actress was treated for skin rashes and was back on the sets the same day!

 

 

Here's choreographer Ahmed Khan teaching Sunny how to wear shades like Rajinikanth.

The song, titled Saiyyan Superstar, was shot on a helipad of Film City in Goregaon, a western Mumbai suburb.

 

 

Did you know the golden lehenga that Sunny sports in this song sequence weighed 12 kilos?

A source close to the film says, "Sunny’s main concern was to carry herself with ease in that heavy Rohit Verma outfit. The shoot went on for three days and she found it difficult to even sit properly."

It was only when Khan realised that they couldn't go on like that for long, that he requested Rohit Verma to design a similar lehenga that was much lighter. 

 

 

In another sequence from the film, Sunny bathes in 100 litres of milk.

That is one SENSUOUS princess, right?

 

 

The scene, shot during a chilly night in Rajasthan, had milk diluted with warm water.

Word from the sets was that it left behind skin rashes for the actress to deal with later on.


 

Here is veteran choreographer Saroj Khan, conducting a special workshop for Sunny to learn a few classical dance steps for the song Saiyyan Superstar at Ahmed Khan's behest.

"It was great shooting the song. It's one of the most beautiful numbers I have ever shot. Ahmed is always a blast to work with and this song was no exception," Sunny said. 


 

Sunny is seen here with costar Rajneesh Duggal in one of the intimate scenes from the film.
