The Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) has firmly rejected claims that it was responsible for the leak of Vijay’s film Jana Nayagan, calling all such reports “baseless and misleading.” The clarification came a day after scenes and reportedly the full film appeared on social media and torrrent websites, setting off a wave of outrage across the entertainment industry.

Access to the content is password-protected, and the KDM stays solely with the producer or filmmaker throughout the process. Without a valid KDM, the encrypted film package cannot be opened or viewed by anyone.” Reports claiming that the Tamil film “Jana Nayagan” was leaked from …
