Mumbai is Hindi film industry's heart and soul: IMPPA in letter to Maha CM Uddhav Thackeray

India TV News  

The Indian Motion Picture Producers’ Association on Friday wrote a letter to Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, stressing that the film industry will continue to stay in the city. Ahead of his Mumbai visit recently, ruling Congress in Maharashtra had alleged a conspiracy to snatch away the film city to UP, and Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray had vowed not to allow anybody to "forcibly" take away businesses. In a letter addressed to Thackeray, IMPPA said they were "happy to note" that the chief minister had "vocally and clearly stated that Maharashtra is the birth place of the film industry." "In the present economic scenario as the lockdown pandemic continues to wreak havoc, the birth place of Hindi cinema is gradually becoming the graveyard and we have repeatedly pleaded that necessary steps need to be taken to save the Hindi film industry," IMPPA added.
