Sawant joins Shiv Sena
Special Correspondent
Abhijeet Sawant
MUMBAI: The first Indian Idol Abhijeet Sawant joined the Shiv Sena on Saturday.
The 28-year-old actor-singer said it was not politics that attracted him to the party. “Being born in Maharashtra, I am naturally a Shiv Sainik,” he said at the Sena Bhavan here.
To questions, Mr. Sawant denied that he joined the party to give a fillip to his career. “I became a star by direct voting, people voted me as the Indian Idol. It has been only four years since I began my career in music and acting and it will go on.”
Sena executive president Uddhav Thackeray said that Mr. Sawant would be the voice of youth.
