I am not a fan of Anupama neither Rupali but it is too early to judge her success or lack of it in politics..
When Smriti Irani initially made a foray into politics, nobody believed she could make it this big. The initial years were absolutely horrendous for her. Not only did she lose the election, she also (as still is) was subject to the most vilest attacks; especially sexually weighted, not only from the rival political parties but also from the male colleagues within her own political dispensation.
Today she has come a far way but there is a lot of patience, perseverance and tenacity to her current political stature.
Likewise, popularity has got Rupali thus far, but here onwards it is her own hard work and merit that would decide how her further course would be..

Actors like Reagan and Schwarzeneger, business executives like Goldman Sachs CEOs Jon Corzine abd Robert Ruben, left careers where they earned tens of millions of dollars a year for jobs paying a measly few hundred thousand dollars a year as politicians. It's about power, Azraji. Among the greatest aphrodisiacs ever known to mankind
