Brands usually sign celebrities as their brand ambassadors to increase their face value. Puma has Virat Kohli, Colorbar has Jacqueline Fernandez, H&M has Rajkummar Rao, etc. But when it comes to Sunny Leone, I doubt you would find any brand, except a particular condom brand, that features her.
Addressing this, Sunny Leone expressed how it hurts and she can’t help but compare herself to other stars as she is made to feel like she isn’t as big as the others.

“There’s no makeup brand in India who would put me in their ad film. That hurts, you are like ‘I can be just as good as they are’. A clothing brand that won’t give clothes to you to wear at an event because they are like you are not big enough for them,” Hindustan Times quoted her saying.
But Sunny Leone took back her power and created her own makeup line and clothing brand.
“Then what do you do? I created my own makeup line, my own clothing brand. It’s mine. It’s really just about saying ‘you know what? Buzz off, I will just create it and make it all about how I want the world to view my brand’,” she said.

She further expressed that everybody has to face rejection, but that shouldn’t come in the way of their future achievements.
“Everybody has to face rejections. You don’t want to feel that way, it affects your day, but then there’s tomorrow. You have something else going on. If someone’s not giving it to you, you go out and get it. How are you going to satisfy yourself and your career,” she said.
What a powerhouse this woman is!
