Speculation is rife that Barisal-born Bollywood actor Mithun Chakraborty may soon join India s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) that has not yet been able to zero in on its chief ministerial face in the poll-bound eastern state of West Bengal. The Indian state and Bangladesh share a land border and a common language.
What has fuelled the speculation is Mithunda s (as he is affectionately called) hour-long meeting with the chief of BJP s ideological mentor Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), Mohan Bhagwat, over breakfast at the 70-year-old actor s posh Madh Island home in Mumbai on Tuesday morning.
