A piracy video of the recently released film Kuberaa has been uploaded on a website, prompting a formal complaint to the Hyderabad Cyber Crime Police.
The Telugu Film Chamber of Commerce has filed the complaint, urging authorities to take immediate action to stop the circulation of the pirated video.
According to reports, the piracy was traced back to Screen 5 of PVR Cinemas at Central Mall, where the movie was allegedly recorded during its theatrical run.
Efforts are already underway to track down the source of the leak. The Anti-Video Piracy Cell, in coordination with Qube Cinema Technologies' Digital's watermarking technology, is working to identify the culprits behind the piracy.
