After Sunny Leone carved a niche for herself in Bollywood as an actress, the next pornstar to star in a Bollywood film is Shanti Dynamite. Shanti, has been roped in by producer Rupesh Paul to star in his next film which will be a gangster-erotica-horror film.
In one of her previous interviews, the half- Indian half – Ugandan beauty had expressed a desire to work with Ekta Kapoor. However it was film-maker Rupesh Paul who approached her first. Incidentally, Rupesh claims that he wasn’t aware of her past work and decided to cast her anyway. He adds that since they were looking for a character of a non-Indian girl, Shanti fit the role perfectly.
Rupesh who clearly wasn’t aware of her acting skills, put her through rigorous rounds of auditions. She was made to go through photo-shoots and performance auditions. Finally his team zeroed down on her and roped her in the film. Shanti is said to have worked hard for the film. She even learnt to speak Hindi, with the help of a tutor. The team even shot for a promo of the film and it was shown at Cannes Film Festival this year.
