With the Mumbai office of CINTAA handling affairs smoothly, and with the growing need to have a tie-up with a reputed organization in Delhi, the Delhi office will opened in the premises of the Giant Academy of Media and Entertainment (G!AME).
With a lot of shoot happening in Delhi and its surrounding areas, and with a majority of actors working in the Mumbai industry being from North India, this move has been established.
Moreover, GIANT and GAME have a wonderful synergy with CINTAA’s vision of the image. Hence Sushant Singh, Gen Sec, CINTAA, Ayub Khan, Exec Commitee Member, CINTAA visited the GAME premises and decided to do a tie-up with GIANT group for opening the Delhi branch.

Off-late Delhi has witnessed a number of film and TV shoots, and we feel this trend is here to stay and grow even more. A lot of Delhi actors have been urging us to start Delhi operations, so that they may get a platform to get united and protect their rights. Thanks to the GAME Academy and Siddharth Sikka, we have already earmarked the space for our branch-office. We are looking forward to new beginnings.”
Amit Behl, Senior Joint Secretary, CINTAA also said, “The need for CINTAA to open a centre at Delhi has been hounding us for sometime now.
