He said: 8216;8216;Vajpayee can convert weakness into strength, destruction into triumph and obstacles into stepping stones. The BJP has an outstanding leadership.8217;8217;

Oberoi talked of Vajpayee8217;s leadership, but reporters were more interested his actor-son Vivek Oberoi and Aishwarya Rai. 8216;8216;Are they also joining BJP?8217;8217; someone asked. 8216;8216;It is for them to decide,8217;8217; Oberoi said.

Jeetendra, who had missed the date during the day, joined BJP separately at Naidu8217;s residence in the evening. He said: 8216;8216;I will campaign for BJP under Vajpayee.8217;8217;
