Set to premiere in theaters on November 5, the production team has taken a decisive stance against the unauthorized distribution of clips filmed in cinemas, stressing that such activities infringe on intellectual property rights.
In a statement shared through the film's social media platforms, the production team addressed the rising issue of pirated content circulating on various messaging and social media platforms. The notice clearly states that individuals caught recording, uploading, or disseminating any part of the film will face serious legal repercussions, including both criminal and civil actions.
