Rishab Shetty on 'Jana Nayagan' leak: Serious and unacceptable act

MUMBAI: Actor-filmmaker Rishab Shetty on Saturday is standing in solidarity with the Vijay-starrer “Jana Nayagan” entire team and called the leak a serious and unacceptable act.

A five-minute clip, reportedly from actor Vijay's eagerly awaited last film 'Jana Nayagan' leaked and started doing the rounds on social media. The clip contained Vijay's introductory scene and a portion of a song.

Rishab took to X, formerly called Twitter, and showcased his support to the team.

“Cinema is built on passion, dreams, and love. Countless people work tirelessly to bring entertainment to audiences. When someone tries to tamper with that effort, even in the smallest way, it deeply affects everyone involved,” Rishab wrote.

He added that the “unfortunate leak” of Jana Nayagan is a “serious and unacceptable act.”

Rishab continued: “As audience please do respect the efforts and stop spreading the leaked footages. Do not kill the strength to give you many more cinemas tomorrow. I stand in solidarity with the entire team and @KvnProductions during this difficult time. Protect our cinema family. #killpiracy.”
