Ready, Set, Action….Santa Monica Accounting Firm Gumbiner Savett Inc. Sponsors Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles
Santa Monica, CA, April 1, 2015 (PRWEB) April 01, 2015 -- Gumbiner Savett Inc. has sponsored the Indian Film Festival of Los Angeles for the past six years and Shreedhar (Shree) Kothari, CPA, a shareholder of the firm, has served as a board member for the same amount of time. In these past six years the event has usually run during the end of tax busy season. Although the timing adds additional pressures to Shree’s job, he wouldn’t change a thing.
“The festival has been during this time of year since its inception 12 years ago,” says Kothari, “so in the years I have been on the board, it has become part of my busy season schedule.” Kothari says that he has become more organized and prepared for the season due to his hectic schedule during this time of year. The festival itself begins on April 8th and runs through the 12th, 2015, at the ArcLight Hollywood theater, ending three days before the April 15th tax deadline.
Gumbiner Savett has a long-time relationship with the entertainment industry, working with various clients including independent production entities, film and television studios, foreign entertainment companies, post production houses, independent record labels, and distributors, as well as agents, lawyers, artists, musicians, actors, producers, directors, screenwriters and authors.
“We are extremely supportive of all of our partners’ charitable efforts,” says Michael Savoy, the firm’s Managing Director, “the fact that the festival comes at this time of year does not effect our commitment to pursuing something that impacts business, culture, and community.”
