Ramoji Film city: A magical World

“Anna Rasclaa…. Minddd itt…”
Remember this dialogue of “Om Shanti Om”?????? Yeah the movie was “not-more-than-2 time” watch, but still the sets of movie must have left the impression on your mind. That’s just because it’s a real Film City. Almost whole movie’s shooting was done here, in Ramoji Film City.
***********************
If u r planning to go to Hyderabad via railway, then board off at Secunderabad and from there take Hyderabad-Vijaywada highway. After a “small” drive of approx. 20 kms, u’ll see a HUUUUUGGGGGEEEEEEEE gate with big words written on in “RAMOJI FILM CITY”. And when u enter there, u’d feel like u’ve entered in an entirely new city…..
This is just beginning of this place….

*************************
Ramoji Film City is the world’s largest integrated film studio complex at over 2,000 acres of land. It is also a popular tourism and recreation centre, containing both natural and artificial attractions including an amusement park. The authorities have arranged few RED BUSES (just like we see in some movies that shows London city) that take visitors around the studio. The visit usually includes:
a Japanese garden, the ETV planet (a multi-purpose editing suit), a pool, artificial waterfalls, an airport terminal, hospital set, railway station, churches, mosques and temples, shopping plazas, palace interiors, chateaus, rural complexes, urban dwellings, and a winding highway. Shops include Parade, a prop-shop, where costumes of actors can be ordered and Shangrila, a nursery that sells exotic plants. This Film city has also 'Ramoji Film Magic' which shows about the behind-the-scene activities involved in movie making.
RFC has a five star hotel and a three star hotel with an attached restaurant, besides one coffee house.

DO NOT MISS IT:
The “WILD WILD WEST” show… It’s stunt performance… In the beginning u might feel like ‘what’s going on……’ but later it’ll get interesting… & specially the Telugu commentary of the show will definitely give u a RAJNIKANTH effect to the whole show, which u’ll definitely enjoy as at one point or other we all love him for his crazy stunts…. M I right???? ;)

A TIP:
Don’t make it one day picnic, unless u live in Hyderabad. Please stay in either of these two hotels “TARA-SITARA”, & if possible plan ur vacation such way that u can spend 2 WHOLE days in this studio..
