“Partnering with CreativeLand Asia marks an exciting milestone in our efforts to open up the state for film and entertainment tourism. This MoU is more than an infrastructure project — it is a commitment to creating an enabling ecosystem for talent, innovation and tourism,” said Andhra Pradesh Tourism Minister K Durgesh in a press release.

Creatorland is expected to attract investments of up to Rs 10,000 crore over the next six years. These funds will be directed towards the creation of a virtual studio complex powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and other futuristic technologies.
