'Kanthaswamy' starring Vikram and Shriya Saran is being shot in Oman, which is fast emerging a favorite destination for Indian filmmakers.
Directed by Susi Ganesan, the film is being shot in different parts of Oman, including Oman Dive Centre, Al Sawadi, Sohar beach, Qantab, Yacht Club and Omani roads.
Vikram described Oman as one of the most beautiful places he had ever shot in, while Shriya, whose Hindi film ‘Mission Istanbul’ is currently running in theatres in the Sultanate, termed the Gulf country as 'very pretty.'
“We have now been here for five days and it has been just fantastic”, said Akshay Chowdhary, director of an event management company that brought the film's producers to Oman.
He added, “We thought the best way to promote Oman was by making it a destination for people and the best way to do that was by tying up with film production houses in India, and other parts of the world, and bring them over here to shoot films”.
“We are in talks with a lot of production houses.... We will gradually invite other units,” he was quoted as saying.
