Sexy Bollywood stars film in M'sia

KUALA TERENGGANU - BOLLYWOOD star Ranee Mukherjee and several other Indian celebrities are coming to Terengganu in May to shoot a romance movie.

Mentri Besar Ahmad Said says he has met the producer of the movie and even read the script, but declined to divulge more details on the other stars who will be here.

'The production house will disclose the list of actors and other details during a press conference that would be held here before production starts,' he said here on Monday.

Mr Ahmad said the state government is excited that the Bollywood producer had selected Terengganu to shoot its movie as this could have a positive impact for the state since there is a host of Hindi movie buffs all over the globe.

He said 60 per cent of the movie would be shot in Terengganu, including tourist destinations like Kenyir Lake, Tanjung Jara, the state museum and the Sultan Mahmud Airport. He said the state has initially agreed to sponsor the accommodation and transport costs for the production crew.





'We will discuss other aspects like funding for certain slots of the movie with the producer as our aspiration is to have Bollywood on our soil,' he said.
