Lok Sabha Election 2024, Phase 1: Voting on 102 seats underway
In the first phase of Lok Sabha elections 2024, as many as 102 constituencies spanning across 21 states and Union Territories will elect their new MPs.
Comedian Shyam Rangeela, who was earlier barred from mimicking Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi on a TV show, on Saturday said he no longer fears mimicking any political leader.
While performing on stage in presence of Union Law Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad, Shyam said: “Earlier I used to fear mimicking a political leader on camera thinking whether anybody won’t get offended. But, whatever happened with me (on ‘The Great Indian Laughter Challenge’), I got good support from all parties. I got calls saying, ‘You continue doing it as you do it well’.”
Shyam, who hails from Rajasthan, became popular through TV show The Great Indian Laughter Challenge.
