Testimonials

Allu Aravind at India Joy Event 2019 Hyderabad

Hyderabad was one of the first cities to start animation along with Mumbai, Chennai and Thiruvananthapuram a few years ago. And now it has a policy put in place by the government. It is definitely the most progressive policy in India as it has given direction on how industry could be looked into for growth. The setting up of IMAGE Tower will not only help Indian studios but even foreign ones to come together and create unique content. TASK is a phenomenal initiative and they are looking at AVGC as a champion sector to develop it.
