Prime Minister Manmohan Singh has invited Bollywood veterans Javed Akhtar and Shabana Azmi for dinner with US President Barack Obama and his wife Michelle in the capital Nov 7.
"Javed and I invited by Prime Minister for dinner with Obama on 7th November," Shabana, a well-known actress and social activist, posted on the microblogging site Twitter.
Shabana seems quite excited about the meeting, and is quite sure that Obama will manage a second term as president.
"USA full of doubts whether he will get a second term. I’m pretty sure he will," she added.
Obama, who arrives in Mumbai Nov 6, lands here Nov 7 when the prime minister is slated to host a private dinner at his 7, Race Course Road residence. On Nov 8, there will be a grand banquet for the Obamas at Rashtrapati Bhavan. He leaves Nov 9.
