Imran Khan, best known for films such as Jaane Tu... Ya Jaane Na and I Hate Luv Storys, has been asked to leave India by October 28 following his participation in a protest against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar in Mumbai. The development has come as a surprise, considering the actor is Aamir Khan's nephew and made a promising start in Bollywood before stepping away from the limelight.

Imran, who holds US citizenship and an Overseas Citizen of India (OCI) card, participated in a protest at Mumbai's August Kranti Maidan on October 10. The demonstration demanded Gyanesh Kumar's resignation over alleged irregularities in the revision of electoral rolls. Imran was among those detained by Mumbai Police during the protest.

The matter escalated after BJP leader Kirit Somaiya lodged a complaint questioning the actor's participation in the political demonstration despite his foreign citizenship. The complaint was forwarded to the Foreigners Regional Registration Office (FRRO), which subsequently issued a notice directing him to leave the country by October 28.

What makes the development particularly striking is that Imran is not a political figure but a Bollywood actor who has largely stayed away from the public spotlight in recent years. The notice has now placed the actor in the spotlight for a reason far removed from cinema. Imran's case has also drawn attention to the restrictions governing political activities by foreign nationals and OCI cardholders in India. His response to the notice and the next steps in the matter remain to be seen.
