In Lucknow, Boney Kapoor discussed UP Film City with CM Yogi Adityanath, and refreshed memories of Sridevi
Boney Kapoor reached Lucknow
As soon as he reached Lucknow, Bollywood’s famous producer Boney Kapoor met Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
Boney, dressed in a red kurta-pajama, was welcomed by the CM with a bouquet.
Beyond the camera, both of them together chose the gems to speed up the UP Film City project in such a way that both the government and the industry are happy.
In-depth discussion on UP Film City
Boney and CM turned the pages of the plans regarding the Film City to be developed in the YEIDA area.
Boney said that there will be world-class studios, soundproof stages, VFX suites, as well as eco-friendly infrastructure.
Film schools, animation labs and themed hospitality zones are also included.
CM Yogi assured fast-track approvals and special conferences to attract investors.
The government promised full support in logistics and funding.
Benefits to the state and the industry
UP Film City will not only reduce the cost of film production but will also open new doors of employment.
By running courses like cinematography, direction and editing, local youth will get a chance to learn skills.
Film-themed resorts and studios will add to the charm of tourism.
Boney said that this will also provide a better platform for small-budget films and will promote regional cinema.
Journey of Sridevi’s memories
Soon after sharing the information about the meeting, Boney also posted some rare pictures of his late wife, Sridevi, on social media.
One photo is of Sridevi at the age of 20, where she was wearing a pink silk saree and had an innocent smile.
Boney wrote, “This is a moment from our Tirupati trips – those golden days spent in the court of BALAJI.”
Those memories of the couple sitting on the stairs of Tirupati still bring a sparkle to his eyes.
Story of the Kapoor family
In 1987, Mr. The friendship that began while shooting for India turned into marriage in 1996.
Janhvi and Khushi Kapoor were inspired by their parents, but Sridevi’s sudden death in 2018 left everyone devastated.
Today, Boney is carrying forward Sridevi’s legacy as a father and producer, guiding his daughters.
Days to come and hopes
For the early launch of the first block of UP Film City, Boney has invited the CM to the ground-breaking ceremony at YEIDA.
As soon as the infrastructure is ready, big productions will set up in cities like Lucknow, Agra, and Kanpur.
This meeting made it clear that when films and politics meet under a vision, new chapters are added and the industry reaches new heights.
