Shah was scheduled to meet Mangeshkar on June 6, but the visit was cancelled as she was down with food poisoning.

He was accompanied by Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, state BJP chief Raosabheb Danve, Mumbai unit party president Ashish Shelar and his wife Sonal Shah.
On June 6, Mangeshkar had tweeted in Hindi that she had spoken to Shah over phone and expressed her inability to meet him since she had suffered food poisoning. She also requested that they can meet during his next visit to Mumbai.
In today's meeting, Shah presented the 88-year-old Bharat Ratna awardee with a booklet on the achievements of the Narendra Modi government in the last four years.
On June 6, Shah had called on actress Madhuri Dixit and industrialist Ratan Tata as part of his party's 'Sampark for Samarthan' campaign.
