In what could possibly be an April Fool's Day prank, politician Amar Singh has revealed actor Amitabh Bachchan as a prospective Presidential candidate. A ZeeNews report said, “Amar Singh has said he got to know that PM Narendra Modi is planning to propose Bollywood superstar Amitabh Bachchan's name for the next President of India.”
In an exclusive interview to the news broadcaster, Singh also claimed to be the one to introduce both the Indian icons to each other. BJP MP Shatrughan Sinha had earlier rooted for the superstar as the next President too. “It will be a matter of pride if Amitabh Bachchan, a cultural icon, is made president of the country,” he had told reporters.
