Trip to Innovative Film City

We were in search of a short weekend trip around Bangalore. googling revealed that our choices are limited because our frequent weekend trips in the past two years. May Sun was deterring us from visiting remaining places.

"You would have never seen a place like this" The radio advertisement caught my attention and
after some search on the net found about this new place named "Innovative film city" , which was opened just a few weeks back. Thought it will be something like Ramoji film city at Hyderabad.
My friend also got interested and we decided to explore the film city.

We started on May 1st Morning, went to pick my friend from Bannarghata Road. We decided to take the NICE Road which connect Bannarghata road to Mysore road. To join NICE road from Bannarghata road we had to go through a bad patch for one km. There was not even mud road constructed, it was just mud field where only big trucks could travel. My SX4 took the challenge and displayed its off road capabilities. NICE Road reminded the Roads abroad. It is sad that govt doesn't support the project.

How to reach - From Bangalore City centre – Innovative Film City is just 32 kms towards Mysore.
State Highway 17: A 4-lane Toll-free existing Highway. 3.5 kms. from SH-17 towards Coca Cola and Toyota Kirloskar plants; 30 minutes drive from Bangalore city.
BMIC (NICE) Corridor: A 6-lane Toll-paid, barricaded, upcoming Expressway developed by Nandi Infrastructure Corridor Enterprises Ltd. 1.5 kms. from expressway towards Coca Cola and Toyota plants; 20 minutes drive from Bangalore city.
