31 Mar
Summary
- Dhurandhar sequel leaked on YouTube, then swiftly removed.
- Fans alerted director and platform, securing theatrical run.
- Film nearing Rs 1,500 crore global collection.
The recently released "Dhurandhar: The Revenge," starring Ranveer Singh, experienced a piracy incident when a near four-hour version was leaked on YouTube. This unauthorized upload was quickly removed after vigilant fans alerted the director, Aditya Dhar, and the platform. Their prompt action aimed to safeguard the film's commercial performance during its theatrical run.
The film is performing strongly, approaching a global collection of Rs 1,500 crore as it heads into its third week in theaters. Social media users actively urged Aditya Dhar to address the piracy, expressing appreciation for the movie's artistic merit and commercial success.
This incident follows a previous correction where the film's team re-released "Dhurandhar 2" to address a cameraman's reflection discovered by fans. Revised prints were distributed to cinemas nationwide to maintain the film's quality. The legal framework in India, under the Copyright Act of 1957, prohibits movie piracy with potential penalties of fines and imprisonment.
