Panaji: Indo-Canadian adult film actress Sunny Leone believes she has shed her bold image in Bollywood and is now getting offers which will help bring her acting skills to the fore.

The 32-year-old, who came to India with a brief reality show stint in Bigg Boss, is happy that she has a busy schedule till 2014 end.

"I am getting accepted in the industry and bagging performance oriented roles. I am happy that I am doing all kind of films be it a horror, thriller or action. I have three films lined up - Ragini MMS 2, Jackpot and Tina and Lolo. I don't have time for anything else as I am shooting them back-to-back," said Sunny.

She is currently shooting Kaizad Gustad's Jackpot in Goa and in the thriller she is playing the female lead opposite veteran actor Naseeruddin Shah.

The Jism 2 star said she sought acting tips from Mr Shah since day one of the shooting.

"I am in awe of him. He is one of the finest actors that India has produced. He is such a good actor that when you stand next to him, your performance also improves. I asked him to correct me whenever possible but he just laughed," she said.

In Jackpot, Sunny has shot opposite her manager husband Daniel Weber, who is playing a cameo.

"Kaizad sir was looking for a man who is from abroad and has a good body. As he is accompanying me on the sets, he looked at him and decided to cast him. That's how he came onboard," she said.

The actress has completed shooting for Ekta Kapoor's Ragini MMS 2 as well and she says people will have nightmares after watching it.

"I can't reveal much about the film but I can say that it's one of the scariest films. It's scarier than its previous part. People will have nightmares of me afterwatching it," she said.

Sunny has shifted to Mumbai now and also owns a sea facing house there. She has no plans to go back to her adult film days as she is enjoying her time in India and Bollywood.

"I am lucky that the audience is accepting me. I have come my way from there (porn industry). I don't have any plans as of now to go back there," said the actress, who recently did an item number in Shootout At Wadala.

Sunny says she has improved her Hindi and delivers her dialogues with correct diction.

The actress will next be doing Devang Dholakia's Tina And Lolo, where she will be seen performing action stunts.
