AHMEDABAD: Chulbul Pandey might be seen performing his shunt for his Dabang-II somewhere in Gujarat. The directors of Dabang-II are negotiating with the state government for shooting a portion of the film in the state.
On Saturday the director of the film Arbaz Khan met chief minister Narendra Modi. However, the official called it as a courtesy visit. But sources in the tourism department said that the team of Dabang was in talks with the tourism department for holding certain portion of the film in the state.
Officials said the department has also set up a dedicated cell and is offering various incentives for producers who offer to shoot their films in Gujarat. The cell would ensure the producer get all required permit from one place and that too without any hassles.
The government has decided not to collect any charges for infrastructure facilities and police protection for the shooting. Usually, other states levy charges for police security.
Officials said that after Devgadh Baria featured prominently in the recent flick Saheb Biwi aur Gangster, inquiries started flowing in about the palace and hence the state thought it was justified to project tourism spots. The only condition would be that the producer has to give credit to the state and mention the places where the shooting took place.
Officials said that recently a south Indian film was also shot in Kutch. Apart from these several directors are in talks with the state for shooting in the state. Officials said team of Dabang-II was negotiating the location where they could carry out certain portion of the film. Officials said that if this was achieved it would be a major achievement for the state.
