A number of veteran actors and sportspeople have transitioned from practicing their own craft to politics to represent the voice of the people in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha.
Sourcing their performance data from PRS India, we took a look at how these celebs-turned-politicians performed during their tenure in the Indian Parliament.
Javed Akhtar was a member of the Rajya Sabha from March 2010 to May 2016.
Rekha was a member of the Rajya Sabha from April 2012 to April 2018.
Mithun Chakraborty was a member of the Rajya Sabha from April 2014 to December 2016.
Sachin Tendulkar was a member of the Rajya Sabha from April 2012 to April 2018.
