00:00 Actor Govinda made a surprising political move on Thursday by joining Maharashtra Chief
00:11 Minister Iknath Shinde's Shiv Sena party, injecting a dose of glamour into the upcoming
00:16 Lok Sabha elections in the state.
00:18 Speculation suggests that Govinda may contest from Mumbai's northwest constituency, marking
00:22 his return to politics after a significant hiatus.
00:26 Govinda's previous foray into politics saw him contesting from Mumbai's north Lok Sabha
00:30 constituency on a Congress ticket in 2004.
00:33 Notably, he gained fame as a giant slayer after defeating BJP's Ram Nayak.
00:38 However, he later resigned from the party and took a break from politics altogether.
00:42 Now, his re-entry into the political arena is anticipated to stir up interest and add
00:47 an element of star power to the electoral landscape in Maharashtra.
00:51 I am joining Shiv Sena and it is a blessing of God.
00:54 I thought I would not enter politics again, Govinda said as he was officially inducted
00:58 into the party by Iknath Shinde.
01:00 On Mumbai under Iknath Shinde, Govinda said the city looks cleaner and better now.
01:05 Govinda's parents, the actor said, had a good relationship with Shiv Sena founder Balasaheb
01:09 Thakre.
01:10 Rumours about Govinda's potential return to politics gained momentum following his
01:13 recent meeting with Iknath Shinde.
01:16 Last week's encounter fuelled speculation and on Thursday, Sena leader Krishna Hegde
01:20 visited the actor at his residence in Juhu.
01:23 Despite enquiries about his possible participation in the Lok Sabha election, Govinda remained
01:27 evasive.
01:28 However, Iknath Shinde clarified that the actor's decision to join the party was unconditional,
01:32 indicating a significant development in Maharashtra's political landscape.
01:36 Meanwhile, NCP Sharad Pawar leader Jayan Patil took a jibe at Shinde and said, "He
01:41 is not a popular actor.
01:43 Iknath Shinde should have taken an actor who has popularity.
01:46 He should have taken a good actor.
01:47 I think Iknath Shinde does not watch movies.
01:50 If he would be watching movies, he would know who is a better actor."
01:53 Lok Sabha polls for Maharashtra's 48 seats will be held in five phases between April
01:57 19 and May 20, and votes will be counted on June 4.
