Priyanka
is in NDTV's JAI JAWAN
Itanagar, Jul 26. 2007.
The sleepy hilly township of Bhalukpong in West Kameng district of Arunachal
Pradesh was buoyed by Bollywood Beauty Priyanka Chopra, who was on her
way to Tenga Army brigade headquarters yesterday for shooting a special
NDTV sponsored episode JAI JAWAN for the forthcoming Independence Day celebrations.
23rd Night : Tezpur, 24th Night Tanga,
25th Night : Tezpur
Though her fans wanted to have a glimpse
of her, the security personnel kept the crazy onlookers away.
It may be recalled here that the famous
Bollywood stars Shahrukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit were the first to shoot
‘Koila’ in September- October in 1996 in the snow-clad mountains and lakes
of Tawang, known as last Sangri-La (paradise on earth), located 10,200
feet above the sea level.
A lake, locally called Sengitsor,
situated above 14,000 feet above the sea level, is called as Madhuri Lake
albeit to the displeasure of the local Monpa tribe, who zealously protect
their age-old cultures and traditions.
Known as a wonderland, Arunachal Pradesh
is a nature’s heaven with snowcapped mountains, majestic jungles, roaring
streams, singing birds, multi-coloured butterflies, lush green vegetation
inhabited by colourful tribal people with their unique cultural heritage.
