NDTV
Pathaan has been illegally released despite an anti-piracy plea from producers Yash Raj Films
Despite an anti-piracy plea from the makers of Pathaan, the film appears to have been illegally released online a day before its release. Pathaan, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham, is all set to release in over 100 countries on Wednesday. A bumper opening is expected with record advance bookings selling over 5 lakh tickets for its first day. However, the film is already available on two websites called Filmyzilla and Filmy4wap, reports Times Now. One website describes their version as a "camrip" and the other as a "pre-DVD rip." All set for the biggest action spectacle? A humble request to everyone to refrain from recording any videos, sharing them online and giving out any spoilers.

Pathaan producers Yash Raj Films have urged fans to watch the film in cinemas and have cautioned against leaking footage recorded from the big screen. "All set for the biggest action spectacle? A humble request to everyone to refrain from recording any videos, sharing them online and giving out any spoilers. Experience Pathaan only in cinemas," YRF tweeted with an email address to which piracy can be reported.
Depressingly, it seems pirates are gonna pirate.
