Indore, Jun 2 (PTI): Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan on Thursday said that Baba Ramdev's proposed hunger strike against corruption and repatriation of black money stashed in foreign banks, is politically motivated and he would not support the agitation.
"Koi support nahin karunga...unka agenda hai...jaise hi koi neta ho jata hai...voh yeh sab karne lagata hai (I will not support him...he's got an agenda...as soon one becomes a leader...he resorts to such kind of agitation)," Shah Rukh told reporters at the release of a theatrical trailer of his upcoming flick " Ra.One".
"Jo jiska kam ho, usko voh karna chahiye..agar koi neta ban kar karna chahta hai to that is not the right way to raise an issue (One should do what is appropriate for him or her. If anyone is trying to slip into shoes of a politician then that is not the right way to do it.)," he said appealing to youths not to fall prey to corruption.
In the background of the 2G scam and related issues, the actor said current instances of corruption in public life have saddened him.
When asked whether he wanted to become a politician, Shah Rukh denied it, saying: "Why do you think I am joining politics, why don't you imagine a neta joining film industry?
"I am a selfish person who wants to be admired by his fans and well-wishers in bollywood and in public at large," he said adding he does not understand politics.
