From Reliance Industries’ wildlife-conservation initiative Vantara to the ₹10,000 crore integrated township and film studio by Bollywood actor Salman Khan’s Salman Khan Ventures, the two-day “Telangana Rising Global Summit”, which concluded on Tuesday, witnessed investment deals of ₹5.39 trillion. 
The second day of the summit got investment proposals for around ₹2.49 trillion, spread across information technology, green energy, sports, tourism, among others. 
Infrakey DC Parks has proposed a strategic investment in Telangana to establish a global capability centre (GCC) and an artificial intelligence-driven hyperscale data centre campus. 
The 1-gigawatt data park may see an investment of around ₹70,000 crore. 
Some key investments on the day came in the pharmaceutical sector with Biological E lining up a ₹3,500 crore expansion of large-scale vaccine, research & development, and contract development and manufacturing organisation (CDMO) facilities; Bharat Biotech’s ₹1,000 crore unit; Aurobindo Pharma’s ₹2,000 crore plan to expand its capabilities in complex generics, injectables, oral solid formulations, biosimilars, and biologics; and Granules India’s ₹1,200 crore investment for manufacturing peptides. 
JCK Infra Projects came up with plans for a ₹9,000 crore data centre and ancillary infrastructure. 
The AGP group proposed a 1 gw data centre campus and BESS (Battery Energy Storage System) facility with an investment of ₹6,750 crore. 
Vantara formalised its partnership with the state government to establish a world-class wildlife conservatory and night safari. Designed as a flagship conservation and experiential tourism project, the initiative aims to elevate India’s wildlife rehabilitation ecosystem while offering globally benchmarked visitor experiences. 
The proposed conservatory will integrate scientific wildlife care, research, habitat restoration and public education through immersive exhibits and guided night-safari experiences. Vantara’s model places emphasis on ethical animal-welfare practices, advanced veterinary care, and conservation research, making it far more than a tourism attraction. 
At Bharat Future City, Vantara’s team presented the conceptual master plan, sustainability ethos and a proposed ecological impact assessment framework. It said site selection and habitat design would be undertaken to ensure minimal ecological disturbance. 
The forthcoming wildlife conservatory is expected to boost tourism, enhance conservation awareness, and position Telangana as a pioneer in responsible, nature-led development. As feasibility work progresses, the project has got widespread attention for its potential to become India’s premier model of conservation tourism. 
Salman Khan Ventures unveiled plans to develop a ₹10,000 crore integrated township and world-class film studio in the state. The project blends luxury hospitality, experiential leisure, sporting infrastructure and a full-fledged production ecosystem — making it one of the largest creative-economy investments in the region. 
The township will feature a championship golf course, high-end leisure amenities, a racecourse, curated nature trails, and premium residential spaces. At its heart will be a state-of-the-art film studio complex designed to support large-format productions, over-the-top content, post-production facilities, and talent development programmes.
