‘No plans yet for Bollywood’

New Delhi: He may have registered his presence in Hollywood with movies like ‘Get Smart’ and ‘The Longest Yard’, but WWE superstar Khali says he has no plans yet to enter Bollywood.

”Right now, I just want to concentrate on WWE. So, there are no immediate plans to star in a Bollywood film as of now. However, if I have some time after fulfilling my commitments towards WWE, then I might consider working in a Bollywood film,” Khali said here.

Khali appeared in a Bollywood film named ‘Ramma-The Saviour’ a couple of years ago. The Himachali giant starred in a new flick ‘Get Smart’, a movie based on a 1960s classic TV show.  Asked to comment on reports of his intention of joining politics, the WWE heavyweight wrestler said,’ I have never said I would join politics. The media has published such reports to add ‘masala’ to its stories.”
