The producers of the highly anticipated Tamil film Jana Nayagan have given their first official statement following the movie's high-definition leak online. Addressing digital piracy, KVN Productions issued a stern warning of legal action on Friday.
Thalapathy Vijay's film, Jana Nayagan, is now surrounded by new trouble. While the movie was 'indefinitely postponed' due to censorship disputes, a part of the film was leaked online earlier in the day.
Strictly condemning the action, Vijay's team had responded by filing cybercrime complaints. Now, the production house, KVN Productions, has given a public notice. Beyond the strict appeal, the public notice carries heavy legal claims. The creators warned that downloading or even viewing the leaked content constitutes a criminal offence and a violation of digital piracy laws.
