Sunny Leone is one of the most searched Indian celebrities on Google. Sunny aka Karenjit Weber is a popular name worldwide and her interesting journey from a simple Punjabi girl Karenjit Singh Vohra, to a porn star and Bollywood actor, to Karenjit Weber wife and mother to three children, has been an interesting one.

While many are aware of Sunny the actor, not many know Sunny Leone, the philanthropist. Sunny has been actively involved in helping people. It is said that Sunny donates regularly to a school and helps the children of that school with whatever they need. Besides that she is also taking care of an elderly couple by providing them with essentials they need.

Sunny also raised funds for her friend and man friday, Prabhakar who takes care of her team. Sunny shared a post stating how Prabhakar was like a part of her family she also mentioned that Prabhakar is the sole breadwinner of his family but had been fighting kidney failure. She started a donation page for him and said that the proceeds for this donation page would go towards his surgery, doctor’s consultation charges, medicines, transplant and post-operative care.

But there have been times when Sunny’s philanthropic moves have been dubbed as a publicity stunt.The best example was when Sunny came up with the idea to auction her lingerie for charity during the pre release of her film, Jism 2. The idea did not go down well with the public and they accused her of it as an excuse for the promotion of her film.

This time too, Sunny’s attempts to help a young girl named Namra has gone wrong. In one of the most heinous acts, Namra was sexually molested and thrown off the 8th floor of a building is apparently fighting for her life as she suffered multiple brain injuries states Sunny. In the post that Sunny shared on Instagram, she also tells her fans that the operation will cost around Rs. 8 lakh, and that she is trying her best to arrange the funds as Namra urgently need funds to for the treatment to save her life.

The minute Sunny posted the request, her followers started raising questions as to why she was not making the entire payments herself since it was not that big an amount since she is an actor and earns enough to afford the amount to save the girl! One wrote, “You could have simply asked some of your friends and it would have been easier and much appreciated. Stop this fake concern (it is probably your senseless social media team). “While another follower wrote, “Y’all actors ask money from normal people , why not y’all give the money when y’all earn in crores”

While Sunny has not responded to any of those questions, we’d love to hear what she has to say to them. In the meantime, we’d love to hear your views on this too.
