Bollywood star and Tourism New Zealand brand ambassador Sidharth Malhotra’s last year visit created a huge buzz in the Kiwi tourism industry by bringing more than 20,000 new visitors/tourists to the country from India.
The Bollywood heartthrob returned to New Zealand last week and was warmly received by a group of Bollywood dancers at the Christchurch airport, before his transit through Auckland where he accidently “bumped into” Prime Minister John Key.
Sidharth shook a leg with his fans and the performers from Bollywood Dreams dance groups at the Christchurch airport from his latest hits ‘Kala Chashma’ and ‘Kar Gayi Chull’.
Although his visit this time was caught with a shocking earthquake down south, it did not distract him from his job here—promoting Tourism New Zealand in India.
Sidharth was quick to share his thoughts with his admirers in NZ and India on Twitter. “My thoughts n prayers are with the people of NZ,” he tweeted.
Sidharth’s itinerary included scuba diving in Akaroa harbour in Canterbury, KiwiRail scenic tour on TransAlpine, a road trip on Harley to Coromandel, a chopper ride with Rugby legend Richie McCaw, outdoor net cricket with Stephen Fleming and Brendon McCullum, adventures in Taupo and Rotorua.
Sidharth shared his pleasure being the Tourism NZ ambassador for New Zealand saying, “New Zealand is an amazing place for holidays and it has terrific locations, nice and warm people and the country offers safe adventure,”
The star arrived in Auckland on Thursday, November 16 and will leave the country on Sunday, November 20.
