Filmmaker Boney Kapoor, in collaboration with Bhutani Infra-backed Bayview Projects, officially took possession of land for the much-anticipated Noida International Film City on Thursday. This ambitious project, planned across 1,000 acres, will see the first phase developed on 230 acres in Sector 21, along the Yamuna Expressway. The initial phase is estimated to cost Rs. 1,510 crore and is expected to be completed within eight years.
Arun Vir Singh, the CEO of the Yamuna Expressway Industrial Development Authority (YEIDA), expressed that the vision of Uttar Pradesh's Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath to create an international film city is gradually becoming a reality. Bayview Projects had previously signed a concession agreement with YEIDA on June 27, 2024, marking a significant milestone in the development process.
The location for the film city, situated just 4 kilometres away from the soon-to-be-launched Noida International Airport, is in Sector 21 on the Yamuna Expressway, making it strategically positioned to become a major entertainment hub. Further speaking about the project, producer Boney Kapoor was quoted telling reporters in PTI, “We will make it a world class film city, in which not only film makers of India but those from across the world should come and make films here. And at the same time in this film city, we will be having an institute where we will be training people. We will be having a retail outlet, we will be having a village, there will be a film museum also.”
He further went on to add, “There will be a lot of activities for people who come in. They will not get just to see the shooting part of it. In fact, here they will get to see shooting part of it from close quarters”. Not just that, the producer insisted on providing movie buffs and lovers with a wholesome experience of ‘watching a shoot’. “There will be a world class golf course at the film city for the tourists which will have a day and night facility,” he shared.
