Salman Khan’s latest release, Sikandar, directed by Tamil filmmaker A.R. Murugadoss, hits theaters today. However, the film is already making headlines due to the leak of its HD version online.
Overseas screenings began in the early hours (IST), and shockingly, social media is flooded with tweets claiming that Sikandar’s HD version leaked even before the first show overseas was completed.
This has led to widespread confusion—how is such a leak possible before the show even finishes?
Adding to the trouble, Sikandar is already struggling with low buzz. If the leaked screenshots circulating online—many of which appear legitimate—are anything to go by, this leak puts the film at even greater risk.
HD piracy leaks have become a major concern for the film industry, affecting not just Bollywood or Tollywood but cinema worldwide.
The trend of high-quality leaks emerging within hours of a film’s release is causing massive financial losses for filmmakers who invest crores into these projects. This is not just a setback for the industry but also a major failure in curbing piracy.
The government must take stricter action, especially when films are being leaked in HD within hours of their theatrical debut.
As for the initial reviews of Sikandar, the response so far has been highly disappointing. It remains to be seen how critics will react in the coming hours.
