Online piracy is a major problem and a definite headache for showbiz. Such has been the menace that latest films are available for free downloads by illegal websites on the same day of their release. In many cases, the full videos of movies are leaked on social media platforms such as Facebook or Twitter. In past few months, several films such as Avengers: Infinity War, Veerey Di Wedding, Dhadak, Sanju, Race 3, Kaala and many more have faced the wrath of online piracy prompting Maharashtra Cyber Digital Crime Unit (MCDCU) to suspend over 25 illegal websites. While it has definitely kept the problems in check, there are still several fishy sites that continue to leak full movies online. Sanju, Race 3, and Kaala Free Movie Download Requests Makes Maharashtra Cyber Police Shut Down Piracy Sites; Check List Of Blocked Websites.

Coming back to the film, Venom received mostly poor reviews with critics not happy with an inconsistent tone as well as the substandard script. While they liked Tom Hardy’s performance but not too pleased to give the movie thumbs up. Nevertheless, the film has struck a chord with the audiences worldwide including India. The film had a fantastic opening weekend earning more than 20 crores. Box office trade pundit Taran Adarsh pointed out saying Venom has done better business than mainstream Hindi movies at Indian box office. Well, could it have done better in the absence of these illegal download links floating on the internet? Time we start respecting the hard work put in by filmmakers and the entire cast.
