Rajasthan is set to make history as Jaipur, the iconic Pink City, prepares to host the much-anticipated IIFA Awards 2025.
This is a momentous occasion for the state, as it marks the first time India will celebrate the prestigious IIFA Awards for its Silver Jubilee.
Previously, the event was held in India only once during the Covid-19 pandemic.
With the 2025 edition, all eyes are on Jaipur as it becomes the center of attention for cinema lovers worldwide.
Scheduled for March 8 and 9, 2025, IIFA 2025 will bring global stars to the city, while fans eagerly await their chance to see their favorite celebrities.
On March 8, 2025, Rajasthan’s Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma addressed the media in Jaipur, expressing the significance of this event for the state.
He remarked, “Today is a historic moment for Rajasthan. This is not just an award ceremony, but a symbol of the global expansion of Indian cinema and culture, which will give Rajasthan a new identity in the international film and entertainment industry.”
His words underline the importance of IIFA 2025, not only as a glamorous event but as a powerful statement about Rajasthan’s growing role in the global entertainment sector.
This historic event marks a turning point for Rajasthan, positioning the state as a major hub for film shooting, destination weddings, and live events.
The IIFA Awards 2025 will help bring Rajasthan to the forefront of global attention, showcasing its rich cultural heritage, royal architecture, and scenic beauty.
In the last year alone, filmmakers have shot over 60 film productions in Rajasthan, including web series, documentaries, advertisements, TV shows, and music videos.
This is a clear indication of the state’s growing prominence as a filming destination, attracting filmmakers from across the world.
India, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, is swiftly becoming the global center for entertainment and cultural industries.
IIFA 2025 perfectly embodies this vision, reflecting India’s ambition to strengthen its position in the world’s entertainment landscape.
Rajasthan, with its stunning forts, palaces, lakes, and golden deserts, has long been an ideal location for filmmakers seeking diverse and breathtaking backdrops for their projects.
In addition to its growing role in the film industry, Rajasthan is also becoming an increasingly popular destination for weddings and grand events.
Regions such as Jaipur, Jodhpur, Udaipur, Ajmer, and Shekhawati are not only attracting filmmakers but also international couples for destination weddings.
The state’s royal heritage and majestic hospitality make it an ideal setting for high-profile celebrations.
Rajasthan is home to 75% of the country’s heritage properties, making it the top choice for destination weddings.
Every year, thousands of weddings are hosted in the state’s palaces and forts, drawing both national and international celebrities.
These events have been a boon for local industries, from tourism to traditional handicrafts, offering immense economic opportunities for Rajasthan.
Rajasthan offers the perfect combination of natural beauty, rich history, and vibrant culture, making it a dream location for filmmakers.
Its vast deserts, monumental forts, tranquil lakes, and wildlife sanctuaries provide an ideal backdrop for various genres of films, including historical dramas, adventure, and wildlife documentaries.
Furthermore, the state boasts excellent connectivity, with major cities like Jaipur, Jodhpur, and Udaipur easily accessible by air.
Additionally, Rajasthan’s single-window permission facility ensures that filmmakers can obtain all necessary permits for shooting within 15 days, streamlining the process.
Locations like Ranthambore and Sariska are also ideal for wildlife-based films, further enhancing the state’s appeal to filmmakers.
Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma has extended a warm invitation to filmmakers worldwide, urging them to consider Rajasthan for their next projects.
“Filming in Rajasthan is not just a project but an experience, where nature, history, and culture make every scene unforgettable. The land of Rajasthan calls you. Come, paint your stories in the colors of Rajasthan!”
As IIFA 2025 draws closer, the Pink City is ready to shine on the world stage.
This grand celebration of Indian cinema will leave a lasting impact on Rajasthan’s cultural identity and further solidify its position as a global hub for entertainment.
