Port Blair, Jan 28: Bollywood and Hollywood actress, Priyanka Chopra, who is all set to make her return to Hindi films with ‘The Sky Is Pink’, will resume shooting for her upcoming movie in mid-February. The cast and crew of the much-awaited film will shoot their final schedule in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, as per sources. A report in a leading national daily has suggested that Nick would join Priyanka in the shooting.
“There was a bit of tension as American national John Allen Chau was killed by the local Sentinelese tribe there last year. But, the local administration that had lifted the RAP for a few islands there are keen to promote the Union Territory for tourism. They have allowed the shoot to happen and for foreigners to visit the island. There are other crew members as well who are not Indian,” Deccan Chronicle, daily quoted a source.
‘The Sky Is Pink’, which is being directed by Shonali Bose, also stars Zaira Wasim and Farhan Akhtar.
Bollywood and Hollywood Movies are believed to be the best means of publicity for the Tourism Industry of any place. Although many movies were shot in Andaman in past but till now Andaman has failed to get much International attention.
Arrival of International level celebrities like Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas in Andaman will certainly be a huge International news, which might bring attention of people in many countries towards Andamans. But the million dollar question is how much Andaman Tourism can earn International Media attention from this welcome development. Will this visit of Priyanka Chopra and Nick Jonas bring forture for Andaman Tourism?
