Addressing the J&K Film Conclave at International Convention Centre on the banks of Dal lake, Bhandarkar, as per news agency—Kashmir News Observer (KNO) said it was a really a great honour to be in Kashmir to be part of the J&K Film Conclave. “I have been coming to Kashmir frequently for the past 17 years. Sometimes, I visit this place twice a year. I have many friends here. The food and locations are amazing. The policies introduced by the J&K Administration to promote film shooting is appreciable. The locations here are breath-taking and I urge the Tourism department to explore the unexplored off beat locations for film shooting,” he said.

At the end of the day, we need ease in shooting and the step taken by the J&K administration led by LG Manoj Sinha deserves applause,” he said.
