The Kerala government has invited
film industries across India under its ‘Visit Kerala’ campaign to shoot in the
state so that it can promote the state's picturesque tourist hotspots through
movies.
"With this collaborative
initiative, Kerala Tourism can tap maximum potential out of film tourism by
using the Indian film industry," Kerala Tourism Minister A.P. Anil Kumar
said.
He was speaking at a meeting with
representatives of Film Employees Federation of Kerala, Malayalam Cine
Technicians Association and Kerala State Film Development Corporation Ltd.
"Unlike other southern states,
Kerala poses some restrictions in filming certain key areas which comes under
forest, cultural, archaeological and irrigation departments. The film
fraternity will discuss these issues with the respective ministers to formulate
a one-stop solution," said Kumar.
Kerala Tourism Director P.I. Sheikh
Pareeth said the representatives of the film industry have offered support in all
international and domestic promotional activities carried out by the tourism
department.
Kerala Tourism secretary Kamala
Vardhana Rao said: "Kerala's pride events like Nehru Trophy boat race and
Thrissur Pooram (popular temple festival) could be cast in any Indian movie to
showcase these events worldwide. In this manner, both film and tourism industry
can go hand-in-hand."
