City of Panaji to halt film shooting


With its exotic, multi-hued beauty, Goa provides a picture-perfect atmosphere. It has a vibrant culture, and filming is easy, with low production costs, simple modes of communication, and no language barriers. There is a wide variety of locations and seasons to choose from, each with its own moods and offering breath taking natural visual masterpieces. Beaches, rivers, temples, churches, forts, and heritage sites, as well as a blend of modern and old European architecture, add to the beauty of shooting movies in Goa. Adventure activities, bird and animal habitats, and parks are all conveniently located. Because of its small size, Goa allows you to shoot in a variety of locations while staying within tight time constraints.


The idyllic city of Panaji, Goa's capital, is flanked on one side by the River Mandovi, which is lined with mangroves along its wetlands, and in the middle by lush green hills, a city beach overlooking the Arabian Sea fringed with coconut palm trees, parks, and heritage squares. The city is well known by its creative sites for film shooting. But due to the sudden pandemic knocking our doors rigorously has breached the flow of shooting.

Due to a surge in COVID-19 incidents, the Corporation of City of Panaji (CCP) agreed on Wednesday to halt all filming in the capital for a month. Vasant Agshikar, Deputy Mayor of the Corporation of City of Panaji, said the decision to halt filming was made due to an increase in COVID-19 cases in the state. Residents had demanded that the on-going filming be halted or postponed to avoid the spread of coronavirus, he added. After evaluating the COVID-19 situation, he said the decision to resume filming would be made.


After finding it difficult to shoot in Mumbai due to an increase in COVID-19 incidents, many film producers approached the Entertainment Society of Goa (ESG) through their line producers for film shoots in the touristic state.
