Sunny Leone's rendezvous with autorickshaw drivers in Mumbai to promote her new film Ragini MMS 2 has reportedly led to an unpleasant incident.
The drive was part of the film's rickshaw branding campaign and while pasting provocative posters of the film on autorickshaws, the former porn star was reportedly manhandled.
" Some assailants gathered at the rickshaw stand where the promotions were on and tried to get too close to Sunny," a source said.
Sunny reportedly confirmed to a leading daily that someone in the crowd tried touching her inappropriately.
" We were doing the promotions and chatting with auto drivers when suddenly things got out of hand. Police had to intervene and remove all those who had crowded the autorickshaw in which Sunny was sitting.
The crowd was banging it and made things difficult," the source added.
The police intervened in the nick of time to bring the situation under control.
At the venue, donning a white and pink top with black tights, Sunny was seen smiling and chatting with the autorickshaw drivers. The actress pasted many a poster on the autorickshaws.
Despite her inability to speak in Hindi, Sunny managed to converse with the curious drivers. A few of them came forward to help Sunny paste the posters that had messages such as " Ragini ka naya MMS dekha kya?" and " Ragini yahan baithi thi". Putting up posters on the side and rear faces of buses, taxis and autorickshaws used to be a popular publicity ploy in the Eighties, since public vehicles travel all around the city.
Ragini MMS 2 producer Ekta Kapoor decided to use the promotional strategy for the spooky thriller to popularise it among the masses.
