This meeting occurred at the Halduwala site in Dehradun, where the extensive war set for Border 2 has been built. This engagement underscores the increasing cooperation between the film sector and the state government to elevate Uttarakhand as a prime destination for film production.
Council CEO Bansidhar Tiwari, along with Joint CEO Dr. Nitin Upadhyay, engaged with the actor and director Anurag Singh.
