Interestingly, this is not the first time when the Ragini MMS 2 actor went unfiltered about her journey in showbiz. Back in September 2017, when she shot an episode for Neha Dhupia's chat show, No Filter Neha, she had recalled the time when the bigwigs of the film fraternity were not even ready to share the stage with her. In the same episode, Leone had confessed that she didn't make any real friends in the industry.
