In pictures: Narendra Modi hanging out with Bollywood over the past two months
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been seen in the company of numerous Bollywood celebrities over the past few weeks. Filmmakers and actors have been posting photographic evidence on social media platforms of their encounters with Modi over the past few days. The prime minister, who is already in campaign mode for the upcoming general election, has also made it a point to tweet his thanks to the celebrities who shared the frame with him.
The most recent lot of images came from the inauguration of the National Museum of Indian Cinema at the Films Division headquarters in Mumbai on Saturday. The museum traces the history of cinema through artefacts and specially created exhibits. Among the stars who were clicked with Modi at the event were Asha Bhosle, Aamir Khan, Jeetendra, AR Rahman, Kapil Sharma, Rohit Shetty, Badshah, Parineeti Chopra, Bhushan Kumar, Divya Dutta and Kunal Kohli.
Asha Ji, thank you for gracing the programme with your presence. The entire nation looks up to you for your stupendous contribution to the film world. @ashabhoslehttps://t.co/wE77ZtZSD0

When @KapilSharmaK9 appreciates somebody's humour, it sure makes that person happy and I am no exception. :)

Modi made an attempt at humour in his response to a tweet by actor Kartik Aaryan, who joked about not being to wangle a selfie with the Bharatiya Janata Party leader.
Not losers but Rockstars!

No selfie Jab We Met but there will always be another occasion. :) https://t.co/1Ud7D5jIvd
Modi was also photographed engaging in a little shimmy with a wheelchair-bound Manoj Kumar. The actor and director has a long association with Modi, according to a 2014 report in The Times of India. Kumar, who headlined several patriotic films between the 1960s and the ’80s, had met Modi in 1984 while campaigning for the BJP, the actor told the newspaper. Kumar recalled, “For the brief time that we shared, I observed that Narendra Modi was dynamic even then.”
