Alleged leak became an eye-opener: Sarathkumar

Talking to the media in Kochi about his latest film Jaggubhai which had hit the headlines days before its release after a full length unfinished version of the movie appeared on the Internet, creating a flutter in Kollywood, popular Tamil actor Sarathkumar said that the incident has become an eye-opener for the entire industry.

Elaborating on the alleged leak of Jaggubhai, he said that it was posted from Germany. “We are yet to ascertain the source of the leak. Police have launched a massive hunt to nab those involved in it. The industry needs to plug the loopholes by strengthening security measures and keeping a close track during the post-production period." Sarathkumar said the version posted on the Net was not in the final order of the movie, which is entirely different.

Produced by the actor himself in association with his actor-wife Radikaa Sarathkumar, Jaggubhai is the story of a father (Sarathkumar) who is on a mission to save his daughter (Shriya Sharan). Director K.S. Ravikumar penned Jaggubhai keeping in mind Rajnikanth in the title role, but he could not take up the assignment and finally Sarathkumar was finalized.
