MUMBAI: "I had never planned to join politics. I never had any pressure from my family to join politics. I had decided that when I`ll come back to India, I`ll do something for the country. I saw many problems at the local level and after seeing the problems I decided to move ahead and that`s how my political activeness increased," says Milind Deora, India`s youngest parliamentarian in a candid chat with Sanjeev Srivastava, India Editor, BBC Hindi on the show BBC Ek Mulakat on Radio One FM 94.3.
Milind Deora reminisces about his days in the USA where he studied and later worked before the zest to do something for the country brought him back to first start "Sparsh" and then go on to join active politics.
"I do watch films but I am not very keen. I believe only an inspiring film is a good film. Just entertainment is not enough for me. You should be inspired after watching the film." says Milind Deora who became a die-hard fan of Shahrukh Khan after watching "Swades" which also inspires him a lot. He further added, "I am keen about music. I feel very relaxed when I listen to music. Even in my childhood days, I used to listen to music whenever I was tensed." It made me feel good."
In an interview where he talks about the influence his father and mother have had on his professional, political and personal life, Milind Deora shows his down-right honesty when he confesses that, "If I were not the son of a politician, no one would have made me an MP," and has a few words of advise for aspiring politicians.
