Team Rangasthalam files police complaint
The filmmakers took the step after Samantha's look from the film was leaked on social media.
While the recently released look of Ram Charan’s character, Chitti Babu from Rangasthalam did generate a great deal of buzz, many leaked pictures of Samantha’s new avatar in the film have also been doing the rounds. Seen in a total de-glam appearance, many got an insight into her role in the film, but it hasn’t gone down well with the makers for sure.
And so, Laxman Rao, the manager of the film’s production house, Mythri Movie Makers, lodged a complaint with the Cyber Crime Unit on Monday, sharing that four pictures from the sets of the film, that featured Samantha, were leaked unofficially. “In his complaint, he has stated that the leak will affect the promotional activities of the film and has requested stringent action to be taken about the same”.
Although this is not the first time something of this sort has happened, in most cases filmmakers do not resort to filing complaints. But it looks like the team of Rangasthalam decided to put their foot down and not take such untoward incidents lightly.
