New Delhi: More than ideology, the major political parties are trusting on glitterati. Their star-studded list gives convincing proof of what they believe in.
Everything is fair in love and politics. So Congress has bagged Bhojpuri star Ravi Kishan (Jaunpur), actor Nagma, Cricketer Md Kaif (Phulpur) in Uttar Pradesh while BJP has stars like Babul Supriyo (Asansol), Joy Banerjee (Birbhum) Â and Manoj Tiwari.
In the true spirit of Holi, political parties are raining tickets on the film and cricket stars. What the national parties do, regional parties try to do even better. Mamata has given tickets to star footballer Baichung Bhutiya (Darjeeling) and actress Moon Moon Sen (Bankura) in West Bengal, Mulayam has found a star in comedian Raju Srivastava, who will be contesting from Kanpur seat. Raj Thackeray’s MNS has decided to give ticket to famous actor and director Mahesh Manjrekar from North-West Mumbai.
