It all started with King Khan. With the Bollywood superstar owning the IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders, it's no secret that the West Bengal chief minister is a big supporter and the PDA between them just cannot be unseen. 

Time and again, Shah Rukh Khan has paid visit to the state to either promote his movies like he did with Happy New Year, or to attend the Kolkata International Film Festival (KIFF) after a special invite from Didi.

Mamata Banerjee has also tied a Rakhi to the Superstar, making the brother-sister bond official.

But it's not just Badshah Khan who has a special bond with Banerjee. Bollywood's first family, the Bachchans too have gotten their fair share of love and support from the Trinamool Congress chief. Be it lighting lamps at KIFF or shooting in the city for Piku, Bachchan senior too shares a good rapport with the Bengal CM.

The latest member to join the Bollywood fanclub of Mamata Banerjee is actor Hrithik Roshan. In the City Of Joy to perform at the opening night of Season 8 of the Indian Premier League, the star also got the opportunity to meet Mamata Didi. He was quick to acknowledge the "Bengali warmth" and also posted a picture of their meet on Twitter.

And judging by the follow up tweets from Mamata Banerjee, the love and warmth seems to be mutual. Didi wished him and his team good luck and also made it a point to praise Hrithik's performance at the inauguration ceremony.

After her recent foray into the social media sphere on Twitter, Mamata seems to be actively using the platform to engage with her Bollywood friends. 

Tinsel town's other favourite politician Narendra Modi, might well have Didi for competition!
