Vidya Balan, who was longing for a selfie with veteran actresses Sharmila Tagore, Jaya Bachchan and Moushumi Chatterjee, finally got her wish fulfilled on Saturday, thanks to none other than megastar Amitabh Bachchan.

Balan and the senior actresses graced the inaugural of the 21st Kolkata International Film Festival here.

During her speech at the opening ceremony, the "Kahaani" actress referred to the veterans as "Bengal tigresses" and voiced her desire to click a selfie with them.

Later, she posted two selfies with Big B in the frame, flanked by the leading ladies of yesteryears. Balan thanked the cinema icon for the selfie.

"@SrBachchan The only actor to edit himself out of a frame. Thank You Mr.B for the selfie with the Bengal tigresses!," Balan tweeted.
