"Would you like some ham?"

No doubt the question that Shah Rukh Khan would have asked young Gandhi scion Priyanka during a much-hyped dinner, supposedly organised to get him to join in, sorry, join the Congress. Or the Co-co-co-co-co-ngress.

Do celebrity endorsements really work in politics? They certainly didn't help John Kerry in the US, but India is even more celebrity obsessed, and has fewer of them. Hmmm. I'm waiting for the BJP to snap up a token Khan now.
