The Uttar Pradesh Government organized a mega film festival in Lucknow recently & invited noted Bollywood celebs to boost film tourism in the state.
Award-winning Filmmakers Boney Kapoor, Rahul Mittra & Anand L Rai and actors Satish Kaushik, Ayushmann Khurrana & Ravi Kishan shared the dais with Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath who reiterated the importance of Hindi films in uniting the country, apart from handing over subsidy cheques worth 7 crores to 14 films being shot in the state.
producer-actor Rahul Mittra urged the UP government to ensure minimal administrative hassles and incentivise & promote its locations, who was incidentally the first producer to get subsidy from UP film Bandhu for his 2013 film Bullett Raja.
