New Delhi: In the merit list of an undergraduate course in Kolkata college, the name of Bollywood actress Sunny Leone popped up, taking everyone by surprise
Her name flashed right at the top in the first list for admission to BA in English at Asutosh College, Kolkata. The moment, the merit list landed on social media, it hogged all the attention and started a laughing riot, with memes floating all around.
The first list for admission to BA (Honours) in English at Ashutosh College, posted on its website, had the actor’s name right at the top. Alongside the name, an application ID and roll number with a complete 400 score in the best of four subjects in the Class 12 board examinations were mentioned on the list.
The actor came up with a tongue and cheek response to this bizarre list and tweeted about enrolling in college.
“See you all in college next semester!!! Hope you’re in my class.”
See you all in college next semester!!! Hope your in my class 😉 ??

However, terming it as mala fide attempt to malign the reputation of the college, the authorities of Asutosh College lodged a complaint with Cyber Police Station of Kolkata Police.
They noted an “anonymous applicant” trying to “misuse free online application mode window and trying to blacken the legacy’ of the institution.
“This alleged applicant has used the name of ‘Sunny Leone’, which happens to be the name of an actress associated with show business, and has claimed to have obtained 100 per cent marks in WBCHSE (General category),” the complaint read.
Later in the evening, the candidate’s name was changed to ‘ABC’, while the other details remained the same.
