The Trinamool Congress will use the ‘star power’ of actor Mithun Chakraborty to add spark to its campaign for the upcoming Lok Sabha polls.

The Disco Dancer star, recently elected as a Rajya Sabha member on the Trinamool ticket, will kick start the campaign for party candidates at a rally in the Ramlila ground here on March 12.

Mr. Chakraborty is likely to cover almost all constituencies where the party has fielded candidates within West Bengal and outside. The party has already announced the list of candidates for other States such as Jharkhand, Tripura and Manipur. Actors Moonmoon Sen and Sandhya Roy, and local heartthrob Deb are some of the new faces from the filmdom this time. —
