SVF co-founder & Director, Shrikant Mohta, said ‘’Tollywood has no dearth of talent and Srijit is one of the finest we have. Already a National Award winning director, Srijit also has immense potential as a producer. We at SVF want to be part of not only his personal growth but also give the platform to him to find fresh talent and tell more exciting stories.”

‘’I consider myself extremely fortunate to be associated with SVF and owe most of the success to Shrikant and Moni. I am sure that SVF’s technical knowhow and infrastructural support will ensure that all my future endeavours as a director or producer will be even more successful,’’ said Srijit Mukherji, the maker of widely acclaimed films such as Autograph, Rajkahini, Zulfiqar and many others.
