When asked who he would consider brave among Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Rahul Gandhi, Arvind Kejriwal, and others, Khan remarked, “I think they all are brave politicians. I think what Rahul Gandhi has done is also been very impressive, because there was a point when people were disrespecting, things he was saying, things he was doing… and I think he has turned that around by working hard in a very interesting way.”
