Will the long-awaited Film City project in Mysuru become a reality in the present tenure of Chief Minister Siddaramaiah?
The Kannada film industry is very hopeful this time as the land allotted for establishing the Film City comes under Varuna constituency represented by Mr. Siddaramaiah, near Mysuru. In his last term, the CM announced the project and allotted 120 acres of land at Immavu village for the State’s first all-in-one facility for film shooting.
As Mr. Siddaramaiah is preparing to present his first budget of the new government, all eyes are on him as the film fraternity anticipates that something big would emerge to realize Sandalwood’s ‘dream project’. In 2021, a sum of ₹100 crore was sought for the project but nothing was sanctioned.
