Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan invited to sea link by minister

Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan says his presence at the inaugural of the Bandra-Worli sea link's extension here had created "fresh

Maharashtra CM Ashok Chavan with Amitabh Bachchan controversy" and clarifies he attended because he was invited by a minister.

"The Rajiv Gandhi Sagari Setu or the Bandra-Worli Sea Link was opening up the remaining four tracks on this massive and symbolic structure that connects two regions of the suburb over the sea. I had been invited by the Minister in the Government to attend and so I went along," Big B posted on his blog.

Amitabh on Wednesday graced the event as a special guest but his presence at a Congress function after a long time led to controversy. Chief Minister Ashok Chavan insisted that he did not know Bachchan was to be the special guest.
