FILM CITY, HYDERABAD

Ramoji Film City is a magical realm filled with excitement and wonderful surprises at every turn. As the world’s largest integrated film city and India's only thematic holiday destination with magic of cinema, there is something special here. Spread across a sprawling 1666 acres, Ramoji Film City, set up by Ramoji Group in 1996, is a dreamy celluloid journey. Certified by the Guinness World Records as the world’s largest Filmstudio complex, at Ramoji Film City, a filmmaker can walk with a script and walk out with film. For the others, Ramoji Film City flung open a wonderland where 1.5 million tourists build memories every year.

The complex provides comprehensive and advanced film production facilities with dedicated professionalism. The Ramoji Film City, amid the alluring grandeur of nature, offers comprehensive and international-standard pre-production, production and post-production resources.

At Ramoji Film City, nature's grandeur - woods, hills and lakes - frame the stunning human conceptions such as studios, gardens, hotels, multi-storied buildings and flexible mock-ups. Every RFC location, whether it is an exquisitely landscaped garden or a vividly real mock-up, has been specially conceptualised to serve filmmaking purposes. For instance, the façade and orientation of every film city edifice - airport, apartment block or a medieval castle - can be manipulated in accordance with the imperatives of a shoot.

Such a level of customization for filmmakers has been achieved because of renowned designers, landscapists and architects - with a sterling record in executing film-specific projects - were deployed for creating RFC locations.
