Mumbai/IBNS: Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan has heaped praises on Leader of Opposition and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi besides picking him as one of the "brave politicians" of the country.

At the India Today Conclave, Saif was asked what kind of politicians he liked.

The actor replied, "I like the brave and honest politicians."

When the anchor pressed further to pick one among Narendra Modi, Rahul Gandhi, Arvind Kejriwal and others as a brave politician, Saif picked all of them but made a special remark for Rahul Gandhi.

"They are all brave politicians but what Rahul Gandhi has done has also been very impressive because there was a point when people were disrespecting things he was saying and doing.

"And I think he has turned that around by working very hard and in an interesting way," Saif said.

The video, which went viral on social media, has been shared on X by several Congress volunteers.

Congress spokesperson Shama Mohamed posted the clip on X and said, "Bollywood actor Saif Ali Khan is full of praise for LoP
@RahulGandhiJi. What he says is absolutely true—Rahul Gandhi Ji has changed people’s views about him through his hard work."
