Porn star Sunny Leone is coming back with her ultra sizzling appearance in Kaizad Gustad’s thriller Jackpot. It would be her second Bollywood film after Pooja Bhatt’s Jism 2. She has also done an item song Leela Teri in Shootout Out Wadala.She has impressed director Kaizad Gustad, who is making his re-entry in filmmaking after a long period. His last film was Katrina Kaif starrer Boom, released in 2003. About working with Sunny Leone, he said, “Excited may be the wrong word. But yes, I'm happy to have worked with her. Sunny is a professional and it was fantastic directing her because she is always trying to give every shot her best. She is always asking questions and I like that about her. I'm blessed to have worked with her.”Producer-turned-actor Sachiin Joshi has been roped in to play opposite Sunny in the film that also features Naseeruddin Shah. About casting, Kaizad said, “I had written the script of Jackpot two years ago in Goa, during the rains. Then I just let it be. Most filmmakers are very possessive about their scripts. I usually leave my first draft sitting for a while. And, then I revisit it. Also, I do not write scripts with an actor in mind. I usually write and then do my casting. Coming to the bit about why Sachiin, well, we met socially and he asked me whether I was working on something. So, I told him about Jackpot. He liked the idea and was ready to roll almost immediately. And, I felt that he suited the role of a street-smart Goan local.”Jackpot is releasing on December 13, 2013.

Priyanka explained, “It's the first one I'm getting. It's not like I'm a car fiend. This one was to commemorate... well, my mom said I deserved one now. It was her idea.” “Why can't a woman be an achiever enough to buy herself a car, a diamond, a home - and I work bloody hard to get everything I do. I mean, I have no problem if someone gifts me a car, either, but if it is a gift, I'll say it is. I have nothing to hide. But it's mine,” she added.In that context, has 2013 been the most happening year of your life? “It's been the worst year of my life. Personally, I don't think there has been a worse year. It's such a dichotomy,” concluded Priyanka.“I think people want honest points of view now,” said Priyanka Chopra when sources asked her to put flesh light on her recent statement- “If art inspires crime, than Ajanta and Kamasutra should be banned,” said Priyanka adding, “As a film actor, people have a certain expectation about what your opinions will be - but I usually have contrary opinions, and hence, am always in trouble.”

In the past, she has dated the likes of John Mayer, Joe Jonas, Jake Gyllenhaal, Taylor Lautner, etc. "I don`t strategize. You can`t say, `I`m never gonna date a high-profile person in the arts!` But whoever I date, famous or not - whether I ever date again! - all chaos will break loose," she told during a chat with a magazine."With fabrication and frantic obsession and who likes who more and how it ended. But right now is easy because I`m single and happy, and it`s very relaxing," she added. However, despite being comfortable as single, she still feels jealous seeing others have great relationships."I feel jealousy, but I've been trying to channel it into mutual admiration and inspiration," she explains.

"We hope you find your true love soon, girl!
