Shah Rukh Khan set to be a politician?

Mumbai: Will Shah Rukh Khan contest the forthcoming Lok Sabha
elections on Congress party ticket?

“The party would be happy to give ticket to Shah Rukh Khan if he is
willing to fight the polls,” said a senior Congress leader a few days
ago.

“SRK being one of the most popular stars in the country with fans in
millions in every metro, he is surely a winning shot for the Congress
party,” he added.

Govinda was elected for Lok Sabha in June 2004 in the 14th Lok Sabha
elections defeating Ram Naik of the Bharatiya Janata Party.

But, Congress party had indicated that it was no longer interested in
Bollywood actor Govinda contesting elections on its ticket.

He has been accused of not paying any attention to his duties that
come being a people’s representative.

Shah Rukh Khan is hugely popular across the country and he has good
chances from any Mumbai constituency if he willed to do so, and
Congress is seeking a Bollywood actor who can fill the void of Sunil
Dutt.
