Posted [relativedate] at [relativetime time_format=”H:i”]
Writer cum Director, BVS Ravi who recently directed ‘Jawaan’ starring Sai Dharam Tej and Mehreen Pirzada in the lead roles lashed at people who are pirating the content.
‘It took 2 years to develop the story. I traveled with the hero 24 hours a day and convinced him to act in the film. With this support and crores money from the producers’ pockets, we were able to complete the film. On the same day of the release, the pirated movie CD’s are being played in buses and are available online. Why don’t you value our hard work and respect our films?
I am scared on every Friday morning. I am scared about which producer would become the victim of piracy. Out of 100 films that release in a calendar year, hardly 20 of them have a successful run. In those 20 films, only 10 films manage to generate profits. The distributors sell their properties and display the films in the theatres. Everyone from the light boy to the person working at a theatre cycle-stand, work hard to bring the film from ‘Idea’ to the ‘Screen’.
As far as I am concerned, piracy to the film industry is more dangerous than AIDS itself,’ said BVS Ravi during a special press meet. His recent directorial venture, ‘Jawaan’ is having a good run at the box office.
