The group went on to win Entertainment Ke liye Kuch Bhi Karega in 2010 and later the same year they were ranked third in Season 2 of India's Got Talent. Choosing to re-enter the competition the following year, the group changed its name to the SNV Group named after members Suresh Mukund and Vernon Monteiro and this time won Season 3 of India's Got Talent in 2011. In 2012, the SNV Group travelled to Las Vegas and entered the World Hip Hop Dance Championship where they made it to the finals and finished in 8th place, a first for an Indian group. Their hardships in funding their trip and their remarkable achievement in the competition were documented in the 2015 Bollywood filmABCD 2 which was directed by choreographer Remo D'Souza and starred prominent actors like Varun Dhawan, Prabhu Deva and Shraddha Kapoor in lead roles. After the release of the film, Mukund and Vernon parted ways due to creative differences and the group split with Vernon starting his own dance crew called "V Company."
