The web series streaming on Zee 5, traces her sensational journey from being a middle-class Sikh girl to a successful porn star to now a popular Bollywood actress.

According to a report in Mid-day, Ekta Kapoor has conceptualised a web series based on Kama Sutra, and Sunny Leone has been approached to play the lead.

A source spoke to the tabloid and revealed, "Discussions have been on between the duo (Sunny Leone and Ekta Kapoor) over the past few months. Sunny has heard the outline of the show and has agreed in principle to be part of it. The two have earlier successfully collaborated for Ragini MMS 2 (2014) and Ekta is convinced that the actor is the right person for the role."

The ALTBalaji series will be set in the 13th century. The series will revolve around the women of the Goli community of Rajasthan, who used to serve as mistress to the kings.

Recently, at India Today Conclave Mumbai, 2019, Ekta opened up about how she always encourage sex in her shows as long as it is not aggressive. "I believe sex can be different for different people. Sex as content can be hardcore as long as it doesn't promote aggressiveness. That is a part of misogyny. I don't have any rape jokes or on women being forced. I think any kind of sex as long as you're getting it from the screen is great," said Ekta Kapoor.
