The ascendency of India as an economic world power

Over the years, London, New York and Switzerland have always been a preferred destination for Bollywood. However, Bollywood filmmakers are now looking to go beyond traditional shooting spots in abroad. Don’t get it wrong by thinking that Bollywood filmmakers are looking for less expensive spots. In fact, some big budget Bollywood films were shot in different expensive locations around the world in the last few years. Now-a-days, directors are giving more focus on the overall look of their films.

The skyline and beaches of Gold Coast City in Australia, deserts of Namibia, Grand Bazar located in Istanbul and the architecture of Pragu have been the latest attraction among the filmmakers of Bollywood. Akshay Kumar starrer upcoming comedy action flick “Singh is Kinng” has been shot both in Gold Coast City as well as in Egypt.

For the last few years, there has been a change of taste among the Bollywood fans. Success of the movies shot in abroad encourages filmmakers to shot their movies in different locations in abroad. Countries around the world also welcome the filmmakers because it is an effective way to promote their tourists spots to the world.
