Sources from 7, Lok Kalyan Marg (formerly 7, Racecourse road), the official residence of the PM, say the meeting will begin after tea.
As to what the meeting is about: Our celebrities are cherished as role models by the young generation. Their words and actions carry the power to bring change in the country.
