The grand preparations for this year's Republic Day parade, where US President Barack Obama will be chief guest, includes a special rendition of the National Anthem sung by actor Amitabh Bachchan.
Mr Bachchan's rendition of Jana Gana Mana will air on radio and TV, and possibly even find a spot in the parade itself tomorrow.
Mr Bachchan tweeted:
Mr Bachchan recorded the song in Jorasanko, the ancestral home of poet Rabindranath Tagore who wrote Jana Gana Mana.
He tweeted:
Mr Bachchan is also rumoured to have been invited to the banquet in honour of Mr Obama at Rashtrapati Bhawan tonight. There is, however, no official confirmation of this.
Amitabh Bachchan was last in Kolkata some months ago to shoot his film Piku in North Kolkata's Laha mansion and at local landmarks like Chowringhee. His other film Shmitabh release on February 6.
