In other developments, on March 20, a case was filed by the South Cyber Police Station of the Mumbai crime branch following a complaint by Rajat Rahul Haksar, CEO of August Entertainment Pvt. Ltd., an anti-piracy agency representing Maddock Films Pvt. Ltd.

The complaint addresses the unauthorized distribution of the Hindi film 'Chhaava', which was illicitly accessible on numerous digital platforms.

'Chhaava', a highly anticipated Hindi movie, debuted across India on February 14, 2025. Unfortunately, it fell victim to piracy. According to the complainant, the film was unlawfully disseminated through an astonishing 1,818 internet links, violating copyright laws and significantly undermining the film's legitimate theatrical release.
