Chiranjeevi
who called it a 'Film Tourism' wants to promote India at Cannes as
'Filming Destination' at Cannes among international film producers. For
achieving the above goal, the two ministries have joined hands to
promote ‘Cinema of India’ at the international film festivals at Goa and
Cannes.
Indian
pavilion at the Cannes Film Festival hosted a presentation of
‘Incredible India’ in which the business opportunities in India were
highlighted.
Megastar’s
experience in the film industry proved to be an asset for the
development of Tourism Industry. So far our film makers are going
abroad to shoot films and those films are rated high for the buyers to
exhibit in the theaters and also for getting good rate in selling their
satellite rights. But inviting foreign film makers to India to shoot
their movies here is an excellent idea to promote tourism too in
addition to contributing to the Indian revenue. Clubbing of the two
ministries for the purpose of it is an intelligent idea whose brain
child it may be!
Let us
hope that the Indian films showcased at Cannes will attract some
international movie makers to fall in line with the ideas Chiranjeevi
and other delegates from the two ministries concept marketed there.
