KOLKATA: Stars will literally descend on Andal near Durgapur on Monday evening, adding glitz and glamour to the inauguration of commercial operations at Kazi Nazrul Islam Airport. The unassuming 42-seater turboprop plane that is scheduled to touch down on the runway of the country's first greenfield airport at 5.40pm has on its passengers manifesto matinee idol Dev and a host of Tollywood celebrities including Moon Moon Sen, Nusrat Jahan, Mimi Chakraborty, Hiron Chatterjee, Raj Chakraborty, Shrabonti and Soham Chakraborty. Film producer Srikant Mohta will also be on the flight as will be housing minister Arup Biswas, chief minister Mamata Banerjee's points-person in Tollywood.
State finance minister Amit Mitra and labour minister Moloy Ghatak may also join in the maiden flight that will put the state's industrial belt on the aviation map.
