VD12 makers request fans not to share them. Vijay Deverakonda's Spy Film Leaks Spark Concern for Sitara Entertainments.
The film industry's battle with leaks continues, with Vijay Deverakonda's upcoming spy thriller, directed by Gautam Tinnanuri, becoming the latest victim. While shooting is underway in Sri Lanka, a still from the film featuring Deverakonda in a stylish white outfit surfaced on social media, sparking immediate concern for the film's unit.
The leaked photo, showing Deverakonda in a sharp, trimmed white attire, quickly went viral, prompting Sitara Entertainments to take action. They swiftly attempted to remove the image from social media, but another leak followed.
Responding to the situation, Sitara Entertainments issued a statement on social media, urging fans to refrain from sharing the leaked still. "Dear Rowdy fans, our team is working tirelessly to bring you an amazing theatrical experience," the statement read. "Shooting is currently underway in Sri Lanka, with 60% of the film already completed. We will officially release the first look soon. Please do not share the leaked photo."
The leaks come as a blow to the film unit, who are aiming for a grand theatrical release. With 60% of the film already shot, the team is focused on providing a unique and immersive experience for audiences. The leaked stills, however, threaten to disrupt their plans and potentially spoil the unveiling of Deverakonda's character.
This incident highlights the ongoing challenge of protecting film content from unauthorized leaks. While efforts are being made to combat these issues, the pervasive nature of online platforms makes it difficult to fully prevent the spread of such leaks.
