Noida Film City is a complex of studios and structures for filming located in Noida, India.[1] It houses the Asian Academy of Film & Television and Marwah Films & Video Studios along with prominent news channels from India. It is located in Sector 16-A Noida, India. It was founded in 1988 by Sandeep Marwah, an Indian film producer, founder and chairperson of Asian Academy of Film & Television.[2] It has been the location for many Bollywood and Indian films.[1][3]
Features
It offers about 100 acres of complex (75 acres outdoor, 25 acres indoor), 16 studios, 350 Channels are being broadcast and about employing about 150,000 people.[2]
Owing to its proximity to Doordarshan (the Prasar Bharati transmission headquarters in New Delhi) and a large number of private broadcasting and transmitting stations that have moved to the National Capital Region, the Film City has become a first choice for shooting television serials, news and other entertainment-cum-education programs.
It offers easy permitting that can be acquired within 48 hours, which is much faster than locations in Delhi and also has low rates and hence it has become a favorite of many film producers.[1]
