Samira Bawumia projects Ghana in India
The Second Lady, Hajia Samira Bawumia, a performing arts enthusiast
has met stakeholders in the Indian movie industry, popularly known as
Bollywood.
Mrs. Bawumia, who was attending an international conference organised
by the Maharashtra State Commission and the International Justice
Mission to dialogue on Human Trafficking in Mumbai, managed to get some
key Bollywood actors and actresses to express interest in Ghana’s
budding movie industry.
The Indian Movie Industry, Bollywood, has over the years, gained
popularity around the globe and has been able to permeate the Ghanaian
market, leaving Ghanaians with an insatiable thirst for Bollywood movies
and series.
She explored the possibility of a collaboration between the two
countries and highlighted the benefits of such collaborations to both
countries.
India’s ability to market Bollywood movies around the world has projected the country on the global movie scene.
The Second Lady took the opportunity to speak to some key actors,
actresses and production staff from the number one show both in India
and Ghana, Kumkum Bhagya. The Bollywood cast and crew expressed their
commitment to share their expertise and lend their support as well as
collaborate with the Ghanaian industry should the opportunity arise.
Mrs. Bawumia also promoted Ghana’s rich cultural heritage and its
tourism potential both at the conference and during her talks with the
players in the entertainment industry.
With a population of about 1.324 billion people, India serves as an ideal place to market Ghana as a tourist destination.
