Piracy has been a major issue for Bollywood, and the menace has grown bigger in the recent past. Despite the government and the industry trying hard to curb the crime, piracy has been hitting almost all the movies.

While most of the times a film gets leaked online a day after its release, in some rare cases, it is released on the internet even before the official release. The second scenario causes massive losses for the producers.

Films like Manjhi: The Mountain Man, Great Grand Masti and others were leaked online before the theatrical release. Directed by Shashank Khaitan, Dhadak is a remake of the Marathi blockbuster, Sairat.
