According to https://www.indianretailer.com/article/brands/brand-licensing/Disneyland-opening-soon-in-India.a4725/ which is a news article from 2016, the local tourism department had at most contacted Disney to show them incentives to build a resort in the area.

Considering it’s been four and a half years, I doubt anything came of this.

Indian government members really want to lure Universal or Disney into licensing a park there.

Union Urban Development Minister M Venkaiah Naidu said here on Saturday: “We want to make Delhi a truly global city, having all latest and modern amenities and facilities that any other global city like London or San Francisco has. We want to have world-class entertainment venues like Disneyland or Universal Studios here.”

Here is some Disneyland India blah:

The country's first Disneyland is likely to come up in Vishakhapatnam, the port city in Andhra Pradesh.

According to South Report, Disneyland would require almost 2,000 acres for the project and the government is trying to figure out a land which also has a beach view to add value to the tourism project. Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu chose Vishakhapatnam for the project to help the tourism potential of Vishakhapatnam-Araku grow manifold. The chief minister has reportedly asked his officials to offer the best incentives to make the Disneyland a reality in his state.

Universal Studios India to be built by its Japanese franchisee?

Credited with the first wave of corporatization in the film production and exhibition industry, Shetty's move comes at a time when biggies like Walt Disney and Universal Studios have not been able to enter India in the growing location-based entertainment space, largely due to unavailability of land in the big cities.

"It took a while to convince banks to lend to a project like this considering there is hardly any category exposure here," Shetty said. The debt equity ratio for the project is 1:2, he said.

There have been reports of the interest evinced by international players in this burgeoning sector, with the likes of the Anil Ambani's Reliance ADA Group and Universal Studios having engaged in talks to build a theme park and resort in India although no official announcement has been made yet.

No word about the India theme park. Quietly cancelled?

More recently, Mr. Williams and UPR signed agreements with the Tatweer Dubai to develop Universal Studios Dubailand in Dubai, with Lotte Group and the Gyeonggi Provincial Government of South Korea to develop the Universal Studios Korea Resort near Seoul, and with ZAO Rusincom to develop Universal Studios Moscow in the Russian capital.
