Lok Sabha elections 2019 are over, and many prominent faces, including Congress President Rahul Gandhi, had to suffer defeats in their respective constituencies. YouTube satirist Akash Banerjee’s new video is a hilarious take on alternate career choices in Bollywood for a few of these losing candidates.
Rahul Gandhi, identified as BJP’s star campaigner by Banerjee, is first on the list of politicians who could try their luck in Bollywood. Forty-eight-year-old Rahul has been known as a “youth leader” for a long time now, and his experience with dynastic politics will resonate well with nepotism in Bollywood, according to Banerjee.
Other politicians deemed fit to give acting in Bollywood a shot, according to Banerjee, include Kanhaiya Kumar, Sheila Dixit, HD Deve Gowda, Sharad Yadav, Mehbooba Mufti, Digvijaya Singh, Jyotiraditya Scindia, and Sambit Patra.
