Pooja Bhatta and Sushant Singh are the two Bollywood personalities who joined Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra.

Former Maharashtra minister Amit Deshmukh, Riteish Deshmukh's brother, joined in welcoming the yatra in the state.
Actor Sushant Singh as he joined the yatra said it was his first attendance at a political rally and though he was in two minds before joining a Congress rally, he later thought Bharat Jodo is not only a rally of the Congress, but a rally to unite India.

There is a saying that if you lose everything in love, then victory is possible," Sushant Singh said in an address.
