Single window clearance for clearances to film shootings in the offing
Hyderabad The Telangana Government has focused its attention on developing Hyderabad as a hub of film related activities. Accordingly, the government has decided to establish a single window clearance system for giving permissions to film shootings. In addition, a dedicated officer from the Film Development Corporation would be appointed to coordinate and expedite all required departmental approvals through this single window system. Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka announced this during a meeting with senior officials on Tuesday. He has directed the Information Department and Film Development Corporation officials to prepare a detailed project report in this direction for transforming the city into a film capital. Mr. Bhatti Vikramarka is heading a cabinet subcommittee comprising Ministers Komatireddy Venkat Reddy and D. Sridhar Babu as members. The meeting discussed issues relating to promotion of the city as a film capital. Mr. Bhatti Vikramarka said that the government envisaged the development of Hyderabad as a film city to attract major personalities from the film industry, both from across the country and abroad. At present, those who want to shoot films in the state should obtain separate permissions from various departments like the police, fire, and municipal administration which was causing difficulties to film producers. The Deputy Chief Minister said filming in various tourist destinations across the state would also contribute to the growth of the tourism sector. He expressed concern that exorbitant charges were being levied on food and other items being sold at canteens in cinema theatres. This was causing hardship for common people. He instructed officials to take steps to regulate prices so that common people were not inconvenienced. Recalling that the Government had allocated 50 acre land to the Film Development Corporation in the past, the sub-committee directed officials to prepare a report on the current status of this land by the next meeting. He directed the officials to organise the Telangana Gaddar Film Awards, scheduled to be held on June 14 in a grand and unprecedented manner and invitations should be extended to all prominent personalities in the country, especially those from film industry.
