Pushpa 2 leaked online? Downloading Allu Arjun starrer illegally can land you in trouble

New Delhi: Ever since illegal streaming websites surfaced online, Indian cinema has been marred by the ghost of piracy. Unlawful downloads not only cause a significant dent in Box Office collections but also lead to trouble for downloaders in multiple ways. Reportedly, the recently released reloaded version of Pushpa 2: The Rule has also fallen victim to piracy.

If social media buzz is to be believed, the Allu Arjun starrer is available for download on several piracy sites such as Tamilrockerz, Filmyzilla and more. It is being said that the film is accessible in multiple resolutions, including 1080p and 240p. However, downloading the Sukumar directorial illegally can expose you to various risks. Wondering how? Let us explain.

According to a news.abplive.com report, violators of India’s Copyright Act can face hefty fines of up to Rs 2 lakh or even imprisonment for up to three years. Also, accessing these sites puts users at risk of malware threats, as these platforms often harbour malicious software designed by cybercriminals to steal your data or damage your systems.

Cybersecurity concerns loom large when visiting piracy websites. Users frequently fall prey to fake subscriptions or phishing scams, resulting in significant financial losses.

Moreover, piracy sites often redirect users to explicit content unsuitable for certain age groups, creating additional risks. Considering these dangers, unlawful platforms pose serious threats to users.
