Two days back, news circulated on social media that upcoming film of Emraan Hashmi 'Raaz Reboot' has leaked online. But filmmaker Vikram Bhatt denied the fact of illegal leaking of film online but that was fake file having Raaz Reboot name to warn miscreants.

Raaz Reboot is the fourth installment of the popular horror series Raaz directed by Vikram Bhatt. The news went viral on Tuesday about its leaking when Emraan Hashmi urging fans to avoid watching the leaked version. Mr Bhatt told on the matter that: "It's not really leaked. We put in a bogus file because we know what's been happening for the past few films, and we have understood that."

He was even amazed see the downloaders, he said,"There were 5,000 downloads of a film which was not even Raaz Reboot. So, this is how Torrents is destroying the business. Now this (planting a bogus file) is our way of warning those people to stay away from our content. So, no, the film has not leaked,"

Vikram was very concerned about leaking before, "Great Grand Masti is an example of how terribly the business got affected. So, of course, a film after it has released, when it leaks online, it damages business. So you can imagine for a film that has not even released," he added.

What would be the action against online leaks? He answered, "Ultimately, I think it is robbery, stealing. It is stealing someone's hard work. I would just tell people that 'Guys if you aren't going to steal cars and money, then why do you go to steal someone's work on the torrent'?" He added, "I would just appeal to people's sense of goodness because I don't think there is any law on the digital space. It is very difficult to police that space.

The film releasing on this Friday.
