Bombay High Court order against Ramayana piracy

On 2 November 2026, Justice Madhav Jamdar of the Bombay High Court granted a dynamic ad-interim injunction in a suit filed by Godpower Media Private Limited, which holds the film’s copyright and exploitation rights. The order restrains unidentified persons from recording, copying, uploading, downloading, streaming or otherwise making the film available without a licence, and directs internet service providers and digital platforms to block or take down infringing links, including mirror and proxy sites, when notified.

Why to avoid pirated copies

  • They are illegal copies: no studio or streaming service has released the film online yet.
  • Camera recordings and fake files ruin a film made for IMAX 3D and Dolby sound.
  • Piracy sites are a common source of malware, scam pop-ups and data theft.
  • Unauthorised recording and distribution of films is punishable in India.
