How about this? Instead of creating a rival to Hindi cinema in Gaya, which will never take off, because Biharis themsleves won't move to Gaya let alone SRK!
We should work to change the image of Biharis in India. How? Well, if middle class Bihari families went to Goa on holiday, to Maharashta on holiday. Spent their money etc.....there is a lot of money in Patna and the southern half of the state and the people here should start to venture out and spend their hard earned money in other states At the end of the day....MONEY TALKS To: [email protected]: From: [email protected]: Wed, 4 Feb 2009 20:19:11 -0800Subject: Hope this project is implemented successfully: Bihar to take Hindi film industry back from Maharashtra?

Plans to launch Hindi Film City near GayaWednesday, February 04, 2009 http://www.ibosnetwork.com/newsmanager/templates/template1.aspx?a=21562&z=4The likes of Shahrukh Khan, Akshay Kumar, Salman Khan, Hrithik Roshan, Kareena Kapoor, and Aishwarya Rai may have to soon pack up their bags and move to Bihar in the next decade if the events related to film industry and Indian politics follow suit.For the better part of last 60 years post India's independence, Hindi cinema has been affiliated with, and been the major source of revenue provider for the state of Maharashtra and Mumbai. However that may change in the coming decade given last year's political events in Maharastra vis-a-vis UP-Bihar and the Hindi people.The new Government of Bihar, India's largest Hindi state after Uttar Pradesh is moving to build a massive film city near Gaya. "Agar Hindi ya Bhojpuri pasand nahi to koi baat nahi. Hindi film industry generates a lot of money. We will use the revenue. Aur phir, Hindi Bihar aur Uttar Pradesh Ki hee boli hai. Isse achcha kya ki Hindi cinema Hindi states me bane. Maharashtra can keep Raj Thakre and Deshmukhs and star them in Marathi movies. We'll keep the windfalls off the Hindi cinema industry. Apne aap pata chal jayega," was one refrain coming out of the process during initiating the filmcity project shift.In terms of locations, region near Gaya is being considered one of the viable options because it has massive tourism potential as it is close to historic Mauryan capital as well as associated as Bodh Gaya. Many westerners and western institutions may be interested in investing in infrastructure to build up the region. Other alternatives are Patna and Rajgir.Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has said the proposal was being processed by his government and the state government will provide all assistance to the mega project as it develops over the coming decade.Industry News Network Regards,Sanjiv S Basisth _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail, Messenger, Photos and more - all with the new Windows Live.
