From Raj Kapoor to Aishwarya Rai, Russia's romance with Bollywood continues. Russian President Dmitry Medvedev will keep this old affair burning when he visits the master showman's studio in Mumbai and interact with stars.

Medvedev, who touches down here Tuesday on a two-day visit, will head to Mumbai the next day where the focus will shift from fighter planes and nuclear reactors to stardust and soft power diplomacy.
