Film Piracy hits Ketan’s Manjhi

This is the latest in a series of films to fall prey after Papnasam, Bajrangi Bhaijaan, among others.


What is worrying is that since films take more than a year at times, and millions of dollars to complete, such acts can and do cause grevious financial loss.


Even if done as a prank, such acts have a long term debilitating effect on a industry, already reeling under pressure from the idiot box, and the net. This not only affects the pockets of a few, but also have a long term effect on the jobs of the millions of crew and extras, who make the backbone of the industry Worldwide.
