Karen Malhotra was born in Sarnia, Ontario to Indian parents and was raised a Sikh.6 Her father was born in Tibet and raised in Delhi, while her mother (who died in 20087) was from a small town called Nahan in Himachal Pradesh although both of Punjabi origin.89 As a young girl, she was very athletic and played street hockey with the boys,2 enjoyed ice skating on a nearby frozen lake and drinking hot chocolate in front of a fire after playing in the snow all day.10
Her parents enrolled her in a Catholic School,611 where she had her first kiss at 11, lost her virginity to a basketball player at another school at 16,11 and found out she was bisexual at 18.12 When she was 15, her family received their green card9 and migrated to the United States. They first moved to Fort Gratiot, Michigan, then to Lake Forest, California11 before finally settling down in Orange County, California fulfilling a dream of her grandparents that all of them be together in one place.1 She graduated from high school in 1999 and proceeded to enroll in college.
Before working in the porn industry, she first worked at a German bakery,13 a Jiffy Lube,11 and later a tax and retirement firm.3
While studying to be a pediatric nurse in Orange County, a classmate who was an exotic dancer introduced Leone to John Stevens, an agent who in turn introduced her to Jay Allen, a photographer for Penthouse magazine.9 When picking a name for her adult career, she has said that Sunny is her real name and Leone was picked by Bob Guccione, former owner of Penthouse magazine.14 She posed for Penthouse magazine, and was named Penthouse Pet of the Month for the March 2001 issue, followed by a feature in the Holiday 2001 edition of Hustler magazine as a Hustler Honey.

Leone's last two movies under her contract with Vivid were It's Sunny in Brazil, which was filmed in Brazil.26 and The Sunny Experiment also starring Monique Alexander and Brea Lynn.27 The movies were released in October and December 2007 respectively.

The movie led to her to be nominated for three (out of six) AVN awards in 2009 in addition to being a choice for Female Performer of the Year.30 She followed up her first boy-girl title with The Other Side of Sunny in October 2008, which would be the last time she would perform with Erikson.

Leone "does her best to maintain a link to Sikh traditions, even if more in theory than in practice. But she’s unlikely to disavow her career path due to religion. "Girls will leave the industry claiming that they found God", she says. "Well, the fact is, God has always been with them the entire time.""6
