Dubai Film and TV Commission (DFTC), in collaboration with Atlantis, The Palm are extending their full support for the smooth production of the hotly anticipated Bollywood film Happy New Year, starring Bollywood’s Badshah Shahrukh Khan. The filming of Red Chillies Entertainments Private Ltd.’s film, also starring Deepika Padukone & Abhishek Bachchan, and directed by Farah Khan, is already in full swing at Atlantis, The Palm. DFTC has partnered with Dubai Government entities to simplify the entire filmmaking process for the production team, while Atlantis, The Palm is hosting a majority of the shoot in and around the resort’s iconic grounds. Emirates Airline has also played its role in flying the stars and crew to Dubai for the production while the Dubai Department of Tourism and Commerce Marketing (DTCM) has provided extensive logistical support to facilitate the overall shoot.

Shahrukh Khan says, “Dubai is a beautiful city. It has a great scenic balance of ancient and modern architecture. It is not just the shopping capital of the Middle East, but is a perfect location for a film shoot. We have been shooting for our film, here since September 2nd and I would like to thank DFTC, DTCM, Atlantis, The Palm and Emirates for being such gracious hosts to us. Dubai is like home for me and I have loved every bit of my experience of shooting for Happy New Year here.”
