Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will have a packed schedule during the Mumbai leg of his visit today. He started off the day with a breakfast with business leaders, which will be followed with tributes to Mumbai terror attack victims and then a 'Shalom Bollywood' event among other engagements.

Netanyahu landed at the airport on Wednesday night for the Mumbai leg of his six-day India visit.

Netanyahu's 'power breakfast' has select business personalities such as Anand Mahindra, Ajay Piramal, Adi Godrej, and Chanda Kochhar.

He will later address the India-Israel Business Summit at the iconic Taj Hotel in South Mumbai. Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis will also attend the summit, sources here said.

There may be a one-on-one meeting between Fadnavis and Netanyahu, after which the chief minister will host a lunch for the Israeli premier and his delegation, they said.

This will be followed by a wreath-laying ceremony for 26/11 Mumbai terror attack victims.

Netanyahu will then proceed to the nearby Nariman House, where he will meet 11-year-old Moshe Holtzberg.

Netanyahu will later meet around 30 members of the Jewish community at the Taj Hotel.

Netanyahu will cap his hectic schedule by attending the 'Shalom Bollywood' event, also at the Taj Hotel.
