MUMBAI: Leading Bollywood actor Aamir Khan on Friday said he is not interested in joining politics, and does not consider himself a social activist either, ndtv.com reported.

Speaking with women journalists at Indian Women’s Press Corps (IWPC), Aamir said: “I don’t belong to the field of politics, I won’t be able to do well in politics. Why does one enter politics, to contribute to the society. I can contribute to the society from where I am. This is why I would not join politics.”

He said an activist is one who takes up a cause close to his heart and lives with that. “I am just an entertainer and a creative person,” he said.

He said his responsibility includes bringing grace to society and building a moral fabric.

Asked if he supports any political party, the actor said: “I don’t see any such party which I feel would change a lot of things if it comes to a majority.”

He however said that he liked the idea of “swaraj” (self rule) given by Arvind Kejriwal’s Aam Aadmi Party.

“But the reason I don’t support any party is that even AAP has to be tested. I am not in a rush to support any party. Don’t want to have a knee jerk reaction,” said Aamir who had supported the Anna Hazare movement.

“And elections should be free and fair, who am I to influence the people,” he added.
