Recently, Australia and India strengthened their cinematic collaboration by
signing a co-production agreement, facilitating joint projects and access to
government funding.
Arts Minister Tony Burke hailed India as a "global film powerhouse,"
highlighting the exciting opportunities for both Australian and Indian
filmmakers.
Australia has become a filmmaker's paradise, attracting attention worldwide
for its stunning landscapes, top-notch infrastructure, and enticing financial
incentives. From big-budget blockbusters to indie darlings, Australia offers
something for every filmmaker.
Australia's film-friendly policies and financial incentives make it even more
attractive for filmmakers. Major Hollywood franchises like "Thor: Ragnarok"
and "Mad Max: Fury Road" have taken advantage of Australia's offerings.
Additionally, Bollywood has a long-standing relationship with Australia, with
films like "Chak De! India" and "Salaam Namaste" being shot there.
Anupam Sharma, chair of the Australia India Film Council (AIFC), and
Pritesh Raninga, CEO of Forum Films, welcomed the agreement's
activation, foreseeing increased collaboration and commercially viable
co-productions between the two countries.
