On Saturday actor Rahul Roy who acted in 1990’s Aashiqui joined the Bharatiya Janata Party. Once Roy officially joined the BJP, he said, “Significant day for me today. The way Narendra Modi ji, Amit Shah ji have been taking the country forward, also in changing the view how the world looks at India now, is remarkable.”
Roy was welcomed into the Party by Union Minister Vijay Goel at the Party’s Headquarters in New Delhi.
Roy left the film industry and India for nine years and returned only in 2015. He was quoted saying, “It has been a while that I have not worked in India. I was in Australia for nine years. I decided to come back in 2015 to set up some interesting projects in my own country. I have always enjoyed my stint in the industry and feel there is so much more that I would like to do.”
Rahul Roy is also known for winning the first season of the reality TV show Big Boss in 2007. He acted in films like Junoon and Phir Teri Kahani Yaad Aayee.
At present, Roy is producing a film titled The Message under his Great India Entertainment banner. The movie’s music will be launched over the weekend in New Delhi.
Speaking about his film Roy said, “‘The Message‘ is one of my most ambitious projects in terms of content and story. It is something with which I would like to, hopefully, give back to the country that has given me so much. I am in a happy space with work. And five projects will be announced soon. I am currently shooting in Russia for another film ‘Welcome To Russia‘.”
