Mumbai, March 25 (IANS): Luv Sinha will stand with his father, actor-politician Shatrughan Sinha, when he campaigns for the the Lok Sabha polls on a Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) ticket for the Patna Sahib seat. The young actor is excited about getting a "real sense of politics".

"As a family we have always been together during times which are important, and this is one such moment for dad. Plus, the politics in Bihar and the country is something I have always been intrigued and interested in, while its also essential to be aware," Luv said in a statement.

"We are really proud of dad, and this was the best way to show it by standing right beside him as he campaigns and take this as an opportunity that teaches me a very real sense of politics from my idol," he added.
