According to Arunabh Kumar, the founder of this creative network, the idea behind the launch of the network was to reach out to the younger generation who seldom watch the television to either pass the time or for entertainment. They have created a web series called Permanent Roommates. The series was the second most-viewed long-form web series in the world at one time. They released their second original series known as 'TVF Pitchers' - a show focused on how engineers working in different companies quit their jobs and start a startup.

TVF have covered topics such as Indian politics, movies, lifestyle, social concepts, etc in their videos. As of March 2015, TVF videos have more than a million subscribers on YouTube. They have now created a separate website to host their videos called TVF Play.

TVF conceptualized the idea of promoting movies through creation and distribution of original digital content. Ishq Wala song series is one such venture.

Owing to its growing popularity with both TVF Pitchers and Permanent Roommates being watched by millions around the globe, they received funding of $10 Million from Tiger Global as was reported on 17th Feb 2016.
