New Delhi, May 26: Jaya Prada, the actress-turned-politician and Lok Sabha member from Rampur in UP, said on Saturday that she will decide on joining the BJP only after consulting his political mentor Amar Singh.
Jaya had reportedly met BJP president Nitin Gadkari a few days ago to discuss the matter.
"BJP may think about making me their candidate from Rampur, so far nothing officially conveyed to me," the actress-turned-politician said.
"Will only take final decision after talking to Amar Singh, I am getting offers from all parties. I respect Nitinji, Advaniji, Sushmaji, and I am happy that media is responding to these reports positively (of her joining BJP)." Added Jaya Prada.
Jaya Prada, who left the TDP, the party that served as a launch pad to her political career, in early 2000 to join Amar Singh at the Samajwadi Party, is looking for an opportunity to revive her political fortune in Andhra Pradesh as well.
Meanwhile, Jaya Prada's political rival, Azam Khan said that he was not surprised by her move to join the BJP.
The former actress also tried to mend fences with TDP president Chandrababu Naidu by saying she had never spoken ill of him during her visit to Tirupati in April.
