BJP to field Madhuri Dixit from Pune seat in 2019 Lok Sabha elections

The BJP is considering fielding Bollywood actor Madhuri Dixit-Nene from the Pune Lok Sabha constituency in the 2019 general elections, the party sources said.
In June this year, BJP chief Amit Shah had met the actor at her residence in Mumbai during his party's 'Sampark for Samarthan' (Contact for Support) programme and briefed her on the achievements of the Narendra Modi government.
A senior state BJP leader today told PTI that the actress name has been shortlisted for the Pune Lok Sabha seat.
