We have worked with Reliance Entertainment before and find that they were taking the right steps to connect with the online audience. Online Video on Demand is the way to go and VCF is happy to take a step in this direction.

Our vision is to make our content available to Indian consumers across any screen, any where and at any time of their choice.
