The first such film city in Rajasthan is to come up at Jamdoli

idyllic natural scenery, hill ranges, waterfalls and lush
green environment, by a team of film magnates like Jayantilal
Gada, Dr Chandraprakash Dwivedi, Santosh Singh Jain, Kamal
Mukut and Surendra Golecha. The team had visited three sites:
Jamdoli, Sitapura and Achrol before plumping for Jamdoli.

on lease and hire.
