New Delhi:
Ayushmann Khurrana starrer Bala that is earning great reviews from film critics and has hit the theatres today for the movie buffs has already been the latest target of piracy website Tamilrockers.
However, this is not the first time that they have leaked a film. Earlier, popular films that earn a lot of mdia buzz like Housefull 4, Terminator: Dark Fate, Bypass Road, Ujda Chaman, Housefull 4, The Sky is Pink, Aruvam, Chhichhore, JudgeMentall Hai Kya, Super 30, Kabir Singh, Raatchasi, Spider-Man: Far From Home, Pakkiri, X-Men Dark Phoenix, Sacred Games 2, Mission Mangal, Saaho, Nerkonda Paarvai, Kabir Singh too suffered from piracy. This piracy website has been banned innumerable times. But, every time a new movie is leaked online, they come out with a different proxy server.
Recently, Producers Guild of India in order to curb piracy of films commanded punishment i.e. three years of a jail term or a fine of Rs 10 lakh or both. The note reads, “Cabinet approves an amendment to Cinematograph Act, 1952. If anyone involved in this has to face 3 years jail term or fine of ₹ 10 lakh or both.”

This should be noted that watching a pirated version of the film leaked online only encourages such a website incurring a loss to the entire team of the film. Movie stars has earlier come out in support of Producers Guild of India and have asked their fans to refrain from illegal download of their movies.
Bala that also stars Yami Gautam, Bhumi Pednekar, Jaaved Jaafery, Saurabh Shukla and Seems Pahwa in prominent roles takes a dig on a society that judges a person’s personality, beauty depending on the amount of hair they have on their scalp.
