After meeting with the CM Baghel, Amitabh Dayal said that Chhattisgarh is his motherland and Mumbai is his “Karmabhoomi”, the land of his professional career. “I feel that like other states, the Chhattisgarh Government too should provide facilities and extend cooperation to the Chattisgarh film industry so that it could prosper. Thus, the people of Chhattisgarh can get better opportunities, they can also spread the art and culture of Chhattisgarh world wide and give a distinct identity to the state, while they remain attached to their home soil.”
“I love the people of my motherland and that is the reason I feel that they get better opportunities within the state and are not required to wander looking for better prospects elsewhere. Bhaghelji is a gentleman, amenable and very experienced person. As such I hope that he will soon initiate concrete steps for betterment of the Chhattisgarh film industry”, Dayal said.
