Short clips from Shah Rukh Khan starrer Jawan were stolen by the makers and leaked online, who have now filed an FIR against the handles that have shared them
Bollywood actor Shah Rukh Khan is all set to star in Atlee directorial Jawan. The songs and the prevue of the movie has left the audiences eagerly waiting for its release. It is now being reported that a few clips from the movie were stolen from the makers and were leaked on social media. According to DNA, the movie’s production company Red Chillies Entertainment filed an FIR on Thursday at the Santacruz Police Station. The FIR was filed under the Information Technology Act.
SRK’s company claimed that their copyright was violated because of the act. As per the report by the media publication, the makers have identified over 5 Twitter handles which shared the leaked clips on Jawan. Taking necessary measures, the social media profiles were sent legal notices. The report further states that as of now, one of the handles has acknowledged the notice.
This is not the first time something like this has happened. It was in March, earlier this year, that a slow-motion fight sequence featuring SRK was leaked on social media. Back then the Delhi High Court had ordered all the social networking websites to delete the leaked content and stop its distribution. The report had stated that the unauthorised distribution of the leaked video clips and photos could lead to jeopardising the movie’s advertising during its release in theatres.
