The BJP-ruled Gujarat on Tuesday accorded tax-free status to Akshay Kumar-starrer film 'Samrat Prithviraj'.
"Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel has decided to make 'Samrat Prithviraj', a Bollywood movie on the life of India's brave warrior king Prithviraj Chauhan, tax free in the state," the Chief Minister's Office announced through a statement on Twitter.
The announcement by the Gujarat chief minister came days after three other BJP-ruled states, namely Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Uttarakhand, declared the film tax-free.
'Samrat Prithviraj' was released in theatres countrywide on June 3. The movie also stars Sanjay Dutt and Sonu Sood in pivotal roles.
