Without naming anyone, Sunny on Thursday night shared a video in which she says: "Hey everyone! I read all the news today and I believe that change only happens when we have one voice, so choose your words wisely."

She tweeted the same words, adding: "Peace and love."

Varma landed himself in hot soup after his controversial comment: "I wish all the women in the world give men as much happiness as Sunny Leone gives".

The comment triggered a storm of protests on Twitter, and even attracted complaints against Varma.

The filmmaker later apologised to "those who genuinely got offended". (IANS)
