While she is spreading the heat with her sizzling act in ‘Jism 2’ promos, Sunny Leone is already a hot topic as to what her next project would be...

Talks are that actor and TV personality Shekar Suman is turning into director for which he is hoping to get the popular porn-star Sunny Leone on board.

Titled ‘Heartless’, the film is a medical thriller and is said to be the remake of 2007 Hollywood flick ‘Awake’.

The film will have Shekar’s son Adhyayan in lead role which was played by Hayden Christensen in the original.

Calling direction exciting, Shekar is said to be looking forward for the project enthusiastically.

According to sources, Shekar is keen to sign Sunny opposite Adhyayan since the role demanded someone like her.

The actor-turned-director will be soon meeting her to discuss about the film and also he is hoping to get her nod for the project.

However, when asked whether he is roping Sunny for her oomph factor, Shekar denied it and said that in fact it is because she is pretty and exotic-looking for which he wanted to cast her for ‘Heartless’.

"Oomph factor will be there but it is not like I have to expose her.

I think the oomph factor is on face, eyes and smile," added Shekar.

Incidentally, 'Love Aaj Kal' fame Giselli Monterio was considered for the leading lady in this one.

Shekar is hoping to start the shooting of ‘Heartless’ this year, as the script is ready and they are in the casting process.
