  3. C.Noida Film City
  4. D.Prayag Film City, Kolkata

Correct answer

B. Ramoji Film City, Hyderabad

Explanation

The PIB backgrounder on the India Cine Hub lists it as one of India's three established film cities.

Film City in Mumbai's Goregaon is the tempting alternative: it is one of the largest studio complexes in the world, covering more than 520 acres with about 42 outdoor locations, was set up in 1977 and renamed Dadasaheb Phalke Chitranagari in 2001, but it does not hold the Guinness record. Noida Film City is the third established hub, and the Kolkata option is a distractor. India's production hubs together employ over 1.6 lakh people.
