HOME | SCOOP!! & NEWS | BOLLYWOOD Priyanka Chopra welcomes holding of IFFI in Goa24th Nov 2006 12.18 IST By Agencies Welcoming the idea of holding the International Film Festival of India in Goa, Priyanka Chopra says the film industry will have a larger participation in the event due to Goa's proximity to Mumbai. "Since the festival is held in Goa, it is much easier for us in the Hindi film industry to take part in IFFI, to just come to Goa for a film or two and go back," she said while reacting to criticism that Bollywood did not take much interest in festivals like IFFI. 
"I cannot speak for other actors, but as for myself, I would love to participate in a festival like this beyond just performing on stage for the inaugural ceremony," the former Miss World told reporters in Panaji on Thursday. "However, tight shooting schedules don't allow me to do so. Otherwise, I would love to catch a film." Priyanka and Bollywood stars like Salman Khan , Bipasha Basu , Esha Deol and Ritesh Deshmukh participated in IFFI's inaugural ceremony. Priyanka was full of praise for the organsiers of IFFI, saying, "This festival will have everything from movies to fun activities and a good representation from all parts of the Indian film industry, not just Bollywood." The 10-day festival was inaugurated Thursday evening by veteran actor Shashi Kapoor . Related Priyanka Chopra Salman Khan Bipasha Basu Esha Deol Ritesh Deshmukh Shashi Kapoor |
