We also have television producers, television channels, event management companies and brand endorsement companies as our clients. Basically,it’s the whole of media and entertainment umbrella. Most of these clients are located in Andheri. The idea of starting the office in Andheri is to be in the heart of the suburb. There is no law firm of this calibre in the area. It is for the better accessibility for the clients. It will be logistically very convenient for clients and it will be very cost efficient”.
