Mamata Banerjee invites Amitabh Bachchan to Durga Puja
Talking about her meeting with the Bachchans, CM Mamata Banerjee told news agency ANI, “I am happy today. I met Bharat Ratan of India Amitabh Bachchan (Mamata Banerjee called Bollywood actor Amitabh Bachchan Bharat Ratan) and also tied him rakhi. I love this family. They are the number one family in India and they have a lot of contributions also…I also invited him to attend Durga Puja and International Film Festival.”
Amitabh Bachchan shares a close bond with Mamata Banerjee. Besides him, MP Jaya Bachchan shares an equally good relationship. In fact, she was previously seen campaigning on behalf of Mamata Banerjee during elections in West Bengal. It would be interesting to see if Mamata will be visiting more celebrities during her Mumbai stay in these two days.
Meanwhile, Jaya Bachchan was last seen in Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani. While Abhishek’s latest outing was Ghoomer, Aishwarya’s was Ponniyin Selvan: II. Amitabh’s next is Prabhas’ Kalki 2898 A.D.
