Fans are excited about the film and can't wait to see their favourite actor on the big screen. However, the film was pirated online just hours before its release. According to reports, Jagame Thandhiram has been leaked online in HD quality for free download just ahead of its release.
However, this isn't the first time a film has been leaked before its official release. Previously, piracy sites targeted films and shows like The Family Man 2, Sardar Ka Grandson, Mumbai Saga, Jathi Ratnalu, Sreekaram, The Priest, Roohi, Bombay Begums, Lahore Confidential, Pudhu Kaalai, Sufiyum Sujatayum, and AK vs AK.
Several strict actions against the site have been taken in the past, but it has been discovered that whenever the present Tamilrockers site is blocked, the team behind it appears with a new domain. If they are banned, they create a new domain and continue to distribute pirated versions of films.
In the case of major theatrical releases, Tamilrockers is known for leaking the films just hours before they are scheduled to be released.
