Actors have love affair with politics

Your story Bolly politics: a star-studded election (April 7) was a good read. But film actors joining politics in India is not a new phenomenon.
Many popular actors have entered politics at some stage in their lives. However, I would like to point out that the actor Hema Malini belongs to the Bharatiya Janata Party, and not Congress, as has been mentioned in the article. But the question is, do these actors serve the people? Hardly.
It’s time that these people start taking their political career seriously as India really needs change. I also hope that Indians vote more carefully in this election.
K Ragavan, India
