MUMBAI: Looks like the release date of Mani Ratnam's Raavan did not match the
stars of the film.
Not
only has the film been getting a lukewarm reception at the box-office both nationally
and internationally, its pirated prints were out on the day of its release on
18 June. If
that were not enough, the anti-piracy cell of the Mumbai police along with A.A.
Khan & Associates seized 600 pirated prints of Raavan in raids between
18 to 20 June.
In a raid on 18 June at Andheri East, 1206 discs of Rajneeti,
Kites, Prince of Persia were seized. In another raid on the following day
at Dindoshi, a raiding party initially seized 300 prints of Raavan from
an Activa bike that followed the seizure of several 6 in 1 DVDs of Raavan,
Raajneeti, Prince of Persia, Kites, Ek Second ..Jo Zindagi Badal De and Badmaash
Company among others. Again, in a raid on 20 June in Nalasopara, 314 discs
of Raavan along with those of Rajneeti, Ironman 2, Prince
of Persia and Kites were seized. |
