Mumbai Bollywood A-listers queued up to meet American television mogul and talk-show queen Oprah Winfrey here at a private party hosted in her honour on her maiden India visit.

Dressed in an orange color sari, Oprah, who is here for 'Next Chapter' a new series of her famous talk show, attended the star-studded party organised by socialite Parmeshwar Godrej last night.

Earlier, she met the Bachchans at their residence in suburban Mumbai.

"The gracious Oprah Winfrey visits our home, to meet us and bless the baby...warm hearted, endearing...drive her to the party in her honour. And Oprah in sari..looking lovely!!," Bachchan had tweeted.

The Bachchan-Oprah connection goes back to 2005, when Aishwarya made her first appearance on the 'The Oprah Winfrey Show'. Again in 2009, she was invited with her hubby Abhishek to the show.

The Oprah party saw several biggies including Amitabh Bachchan, son Abhishek, daughter-in-law Aishwarya, Shahrukh Khan, Priyanka Chopra, Priety Zinta, Lara Dutta, Shilpa Shetty, Anil Kapoor, Imran Khan, Neha Dhupia, Sameera Reddy, Dino Morea, novelist Shobha De, and jewelry designer Farah Khan Ali among others, who went gaga over her and were all click-happy.

"@Oprah and @iamsrk, two people I absolutely adore! Thankyou for making my day! Now can go into labour happily!," an ecstatic Lara Dutta, wrote on twitter. She even posted a picture of her with Oprah and Shahrukh.

Posting a picture with Oprah, actress Neha Dhupia, says, "With @Oprah .... She is oh so charming."

"Tonight was dinner at the Godrej House with Oprah Winfrey . Nice to see her wear a beautiful Sari. Also nice to see Ash out after so long!," actress Priety Zinta said.

"My God! Oprah Winfrey is the warmest most down to earth person I have ever met! What a personality! I'm thrilled!," actress Sameera Reddy tweeted.
