 | I’m too blasphemous to be in Rajya Sabha: Mahesh Bhatt 25 May 2012
|
| 
The god of cricket Sachin Tendulkar is there and so is the goddess of glamour Rekha. Javed Akhtar and Jaya Bachchan are also there. So one wonders why seasoned filmmaker Mahesh Bhatt, who is very in with the powers that are, refused a Rajya Sabha seat?
Yes, when sources from the capital confirmed to us that Mahesh was asked by some senior members of the Congress party to consider a Rajya Sabha membership, we asked the filmmaker his reasons for refusing this honour.
Talking to us from Sri Lanka, the filmmaker says, "Yes, it is true that I was offered a nomination. I refused because I don't have the aptitude nor do I delude myself that I have something to contribute to that august house."
Mahesh adds, "My work of activism is done for my personal fulfilment. I will not use it as a springboard into that elite house. I have nothing against those who use their social work to find themselves a place in the Parliament, but I will not do it. I am a lone wolf and too blasphemous - too much of a non-conformist to sit in the RS." |  | See Also in Showbiz News
