The outspoken parliamentarian said his biggest regret was starting his political career with a by-election opposite Bollywood actor Rajesh Khanna, on the orders of senior BJP leader L K Advani.
Sinha said he not only lost the election, but also a friend in Khanna.
“My biggest political regret has been to start my political career with a by-election, of course on the orders of my friend, philosopher, guide and guru, L K advani. I could not say no to him. He insisted that I fight.
“I fought, and that too against my very dear friend late, the great Rajesh Khanna. And I lost, or was maybe made to lose…that is a different story altogether,” the actor said.
