Prashant Kishor is gearing up to contest the upcoming Bihar Assembly elections. He’s back in the spotlight after comparing himself to Shah Rukh Khan while responding to questions about his constituency and seat.
In a chat with a popular channel, Kishor also compared RJD leader Tejashwi Yadav to Abhishek Bachchan. Recalling SRK’s journey, he said the actor worked with many filmmakers before choosing projects that added to his success and later started his own production house.
Kishor said Abhishek Bachchan once remarked that his launch would happen with JP Dutta when Border was being made — because he could afford to say that. Kishor added that, unlike Tejashwi Yadav, people like him can’t choose where to contest since the party makes that call.
His remarks have sparked mixed reactions online. While some Trollers mocked the comparison, others urged Biharis to support him in the elections.
So far, neither SRK nor Abhishek Bachchan has reacted to the viral video. Both will appear together in King next year, and many netizens believe Kishor’s words unintentionally promoted the upcoming action drama.
