Samajwadi Party MLA Abu Azmi on Tuesday said that mega star Amitabh Bachchan sharing the dais with MNS chief Raj Thackeray was an "insult" to north Indians.

"Amitabhji sharing the stage with Raj Thackeray is an insult to millions of north Indians," Azmi told reporters in Mumbai. Sinking their five-year-old differences, Bachchan on Monday shared dais with Thackeray, who said whatever happened between him and the actor was a thing of the past.

They had come together at the seventh anniversary of his party's movie industry wing Maharashtra Navnirman Chitrapat Karmachari Sena at the Shanmukhanand Hall in Central Mumbai.
