Akshay Kumar is all set for his upcoming film Ram Setu. This is year various big-budget bollywood movies got badly affected because of Piracy. Ram Setu is scheduled to release on October 25 and ahead of its theatrical release, the Delhi  High Court restrained 23 "rogue websites" from illegally hosting or streaming the upcoming film.

A single-judge bench of Justice Jyoti Singh passed an interim order after the producer of Cape of Good Films LLP moved the high court. The producer claimed that they had invested a huge amount in producing the film and have been actively promoting it.

 Ram Setu’s  Producer further argued that they are the owner of the film and have exclusive rights to "Qua the film" under the provisions of the Copyright Act 1957. It also stated that any "hosting, streaming, distribution, and/or communicating the film to the public or facilitating the same" without authorisation from the producer on any platform, including the internet and mobile would infringe the producer's copyright.

 

The court observed after hearing the plea said, "Looking at the investments made by the plaintiff in the production and promotion of the film as also the exclusive right vested in it under the provisions of the Act, this court prima facie agrees with the plaintiff that if the rogue websites communicate the film in any manner, on any platform, simultaneously with the theatrical release of the film on 25.10.2022 or in its close proximity thereafter, it would severely impact the interest of the plaintiff monetarily and will also erode the value of the film”.

Ram Setu is directed by Abhishek Sharma and co-produced by his company Cape of Good Films along with Amazon Prime Video, Abundantia Entertainment, and Lyca Productions. The film has been in the making for quite a few years. The film also stars Jacqueline Fernandez and Nushrratt Bharuccha in pivotal roles.
