Rakshana Vedike Yuva Sene, which is a pro-Kannada outfit, has expressed its displeasure with Sunny being cast as the leading lady. The members of the outfit believe it to be an insult because of the actress’ history with adult films. Some protestors have even threatened to slit their wrists outside the Town Hall in Bengaluru. The president of the Sene, Harish stated that they are okay if any other actress plays the character. He also added that they are planning to disrupt Sunny’s show which will be held in Bengaluru in November. It remains to be seen if the makers or the actress herself responds to it in anyway.
