Be it ‘Stree’ films or ‘Oh My God 2’, Pankaj Tripathi has shot extensively in Madhya Pradesh and the actor yesterday said he is deeply honoured to be named the face of the State’s tourism.
As someone who believes in the power of travel to open minds and enrich lives, the actor said he is excited to help showcase the beauty of the State to the world, a PTI report stated.
“I am deeply honoured to be chosen as the face of Madhya Pradesh Tourism. Madhya Pradesh is not just a destination for me — it’s a place that holds countless memories and connections, both personally and professionally.
“Having spent so much time here filming projects like ‘Stree’, ‘Stree 2‘, ‘Lukka Chhupi’, ‘Oh My God 2’ and ‘Ludo’, I’ve experienced first-hand the captivating landscapes, the warmth of the people, and the unmatched cultural richness that define Madhya Pradesh,” Tripathi said in a statement.
From the untouched natural wonders to majestic architectural sites and vibrant wildlife, Madhya Pradesh has something for every traveller, he added.
“I’ve always preferred exploring India’s own treasures over travelling abroad, and Madhya Pradesh truly stands out as one of the most remarkable places to visit in the country. This role allows me to share that love with others and hopefully inspire people to discover the wonders of Madhya Pradesh,” he said.
According to a press release, Madhya Pradesh Tourism aims “to highlight the state’s array of offerings” — from wildlife reserves and UNESCO heritage sites to spiritual and architectural landmarks — through campaigns featuring Tripathi.
