India produces over 2,000 films annually, making it the world’s largest film-producing nation. In this rapidly expanding industry, Devbhoomi Film City in Uttarakhand is emerging as a powerful new hub for filmmakers seeking natural beauty, government support, and world-class infrastructure.
Located near Dehradun and Mussoorie, Devbhoomi Film City combines pristine Himalayan landscapes with modern production facilities. From snow-capped mountains and sacred rivers to colonial architecture and alpine meadows, Uttarakhand offers unmatched natural diversity within a short travel radius.
One of the biggest advantages is the Uttarakhand Film Policy 2024, which offers generous financial subsidies — up to 50% for regional dialect films and foreign productions. The state government provides single-window clearance, police support, and mandatory local recruitment to boost regional employment.
Unlike crowded metro film hubs, Uttarakhand provides a peaceful environment with cooperative administration and strong local support. This reduces logistical stress and enhances shooting efficiency.
The proposed 200-acre integrated film city will include:
- 5 fully equipped sound stages
- Virtual production facilities
- Post-production and VFX labs
- Hospitality zones
- Training institutes in partnership with film schools
With over 500 productions already shot in Uttarakhand since 1999, the region has proven its cinematic potential. As OTT platforms and global collaborations grow, Devbhoomi Film City is poised to become India’s next major production ecosystem.
If you are planning a feature film, web series, documentary, or international collaboration, Devbhoomi Film City offers the perfect balance between creativity and infrastructure.
