Tamilrockers’ impact on revenues
Websites like Tamilrockers badly affect the box office collection of the movie as the film producers do not get compensated as users of these websites do not visit the theatres to watch the movies that are available on Tamilrockers for free download.
Tamilrockers has recently leaked various blockbuster films on the first day of their release. In recent years, movies like Baahubali 2, Avengers Endgame, Darbar and Sarileru Neekevvaru were hit with leaks on the internet. As per reports, the entertainment industry loses roughly $2.8 billion annually to illegal downloads. Indian internet users reportedly contribute to be the second-largest group to use illegal torrent websites throughout the world.
What is the government doing to stop piracy?
The Government of India has taken various steps to eradicate piracy of films. As per the Cinematograph Act approved in 2019, any individual found recording a movie without the written consent of the producers can face a jail term up to 3 years.
Besides this, a fine of ₹10 lakhs can also be imposed on the culprits. People circulating pirated copies on illegal torrent websites can face a jail term as well.
