Sanjay Singh Masani, brother-in-law of Shivraj Singh Chouhan, who joined Congress recently, shot into limelight overnight not only because of his joining the Congress but now because of a video that has gone viral on social media.  Sanjay Singh could be seen reciting names of 150 villages of Waraseoni constituency in a breath. Singh, who was interacting with media persons during his visit to Congress office, was asked about his knowhow of the constituency Waraseoni- from where he was demanding a ticket.

Singh said that he had been working in Waraseoni for past couple of years and has visited each and every village, majra-tola of the constituency. Then he started reciting the names of 150 villages he had toured, fluently- in one go.  Not only the media persons but the Congress workers and office bearers present there were impressed by his knowledge and ‘style’ of counting the village names.

The video went viral on social media platforms and Masani was a hit- at least on social media. While some criticized him others said that it was his interest in films that made him perform so well.  Sanjay Singh had shown his acting talent paying small roles in some films. He played role of the main villain in Revolver Rani starring Kangana Ranaut. Singh also acted in Akshay Kumar starrer Padman.

He also played a small role in Rumi Jaffery’s Gali Gali me Chor Hai. Another film in which he played a cameo was Anil Sharma directed Singh Saab the Great, in which Sunny Deol played the main lead. People close to Sanjay Singh said that he tried his luck in films and TV and stayed for while in Mumbai. He also played a role in a TV serial’ Sapno ke Bhawar Mein’. However, Sanjay Singh after shooting to limelight overnight started making public appearances in Bhopal. First he paid a visit to Congress state headquarters and then visited senior leader Govind Goel’s place. He also met several other leaders cutting across party lines.
