She was photographed at the Mumbai airport earlier in the day when she was on her way to Delhi to meet with the party leadership. Milind Deora said that Urmila is not only one of the finest actresses but also opinionated which affects the society.

Urmila addressing the press in Delhi said, “I am taking my first step in active politics. I know that when celebrities enter politics there is a lot of conjecture around this. I’m here to stay. I believe in the ideology of the Congress. I have never done anything in my life half-heartedly. And that would be the same with politics.”
