Abstract

The Indian film industry has experienced exponential growth in production budgets, with pan-Indian films targeting global audiences. However, this financial escalation is met with the persistent threat of digital piracy. This paper examines the 2019 high-octane action thriller Saaho , starring Prabhas, as a case study to understand the mechanics, impact, and ethical implications of film piracy, specifically focusing on its circulation through the notorious illicit platform, Filmyzilla. The paper explores the economic fallout, the technological cat-and-mouse game between filmmakers and pirates, and the broader legal landscape. saaho filmyzilla

• Creator compensation: Piracy reduces creators’ and workers’ ability to earn fair compensation, affecting future production budgets and employment in the industry.
• Access and equity: Some consumers cite economic barriers to legal access; policies should consider increased availability and affordability rather than solely punitive measures.
• Freedom of information vs. property rights: Debates persist about access to culture, fair use exceptions, and the public interest—legal frameworks prioritize copyright but public policy can address accessibility.
