Sign language: Big B and Mamata Banerjee in animated conversation.
Mamata Banerjee also invited Mithun Chakraborty at the event. The yesteryear star revealed that the chief minister had virtually "hijacked" him for the festival.
Amitabh Bachchan on one side, SRK on the other. Surely, Didi is the luckiest woman going.
SRK chats with his lovely leading ladies from Jab Hai Jaan Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma, who looks paticularly sophisticated in her traditional white outfit with gold jewellery.
King Khan,who is West Bengal's brand ambassador, was all praises for Mamata and confessed to being a big fan of the chief minister.
Umm, is Mamata pulling SRK's ear?!
