Red Alert in the hotels of Khandala
IMP News Wire, Dated 17 June 2008

It is Red Alert in the hotels of Khandala in literal and virtual sense. It looks as if the unit has laid siege to the hill city of Khandala. Since past 23 days, visitors are finding it difficult to get a room in the city. Especially since it is the tourist season, hotels are at their wit's end to accommodate the surging crowds or refuse bookings.

Comments Rahul Aggarwal, producer of the film Red Alert, "it's really amusing, the way we have kind of taken over the city of Khandala. We have a unit of some 350 people, who are working round the clock to conclude the shoot in the designated time frame. And then there is a constant inflow of technicians who keep coming for short durations. Naturally we needed a large number of rooms to accommodate them. Currently the situation is such, that most of the hotels do not have rooms available for tourists. Its Red Alert unit all around."

Laughed Ananth Mahadevan quips in, "initially the hotels refused to give us rooms because they are not giving discount due to the season. But we would plead with them only to give 2 rooms. After a day we would again go begging for two more rooms for the fighters and then next day for 2 more. Slowly we have most of hotels with us. And they are so happy that we are wrapping up by this weekend."
