Shah Rukh likely to campaign for Congress in Delhi

New Delhi: Congress is planning to add a glamour quotient in the capital's electoral scene by roping in Bollywood superstar and party 'sympathiser' Shahrukh Khan to campaign for its candidates.

This will be besides its star campaigners party chief Sonia Gandhi, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and AICC General Secretary Rahul Gandhi.

"Obviously, we will request Shahrukh to campaign for our candidates in the capital," Oscar Fernandes, AICC in-charge for Delhi, told PTI.

He was responding to a question whether the Congress will bring 'King Khan', who hails from the capital, for campaigning.

Khan and another Bollywood star Preity Zinta are expected to campaign for Minister of State for Home Affairs Sriprakash Jaiswal, the Congress candidate from Kanpur.

"People like Bollywood stars to campaign. There are a number of actors who are our sympathisers. We will utilise their services," Fernandes said without naming other actors who may join the campaigning for the party in the capital.

Asked whether the BJP was playing the 'Hindu card' in the elections, he said it was "nothing new" and accused the saffron party of indulging in "negative politics".

"It's an inner world-outer world kind of documentary," said Khan, speaking exclusively to HT. "Hopefully, the parts that people will get to see of me — at work and at other places — will shed some light on how films and film stars work and offer an insight into how I do things." Khan said he has got to know the crew quite well ("They have been very unobtrusive"). For Discovery Travel & Living, this series will be one of the biggest global productions to come out of India and will be shown all over the world. "We haven't yet decided when we're going to telec...
