The Bollywood actor took to his X account and wrote, ‘It’s heartbreaking to see a film like Jananayagan get leaked online. The sleepless nights, years of effort and passion that go into making a film… only those involved truly understand. It’s like their baby.
Piracy is not just illegal, it’s a complete disregard for every artist and technician behind it. This needs strict action.
Standing in support of Vijay. Let’s respect cinema.’

Pooja Hegde further added, ‘The online leak of our film is deeply disheartening, not just for me, but for every single person who worked on it. It is incredibly difficult to witness it being leaked and shared illegally.
