Thiruvananthapuram, November 5: Last night, pirated copies of the blockbuster hit ‘Pulimurugan’ became available on the Internet. The film appeared on four websites, including Tamil Torrent.
The Kerala police’s intervention in Cyber Dome prevented further downloading of the film. The police also removed those links from the internet. The police will also initiate legal action against those who unauthorisedly attempted to spread the movie among the public.
The cinema, released on October 7, has received a warm welcome nationally and internationally. The film attained a record collection of 20 crores in the first five days after its release. The total collection to date is approximately 75 crores. The movie is still being successfully shown in theaters.
The film was released in the UAE and GCC on 4 November 4th. It was estimated that Pulimurugan would be the first Malayalam film to enter the 100-crore club.
Earlier, the Malayalam hit film Premam was also expected to enter the 100-crore club. But as the censored copy of the film spread, it affected the film’s collection. Some of the important scenes of Pulimurugan had spread on the internet earlier. Director Vyshakh himself came forward against this.
