According to Vision Enterprise and Bollywood PR Productions head Sonu Tyagi, "We have already created a very good niche in the in-film advertising and marketing business and it was the right time for us to expand into other things like production and marketing of content. The Hindi film industry is going through a very good phase and we've wanted to be a part of it for a long time now."
