3 makers to send legal notice to illegal downloaders

The makers of Dhanush starrer Tamil film 3 have joined Copyright Labs to curb the piracy of the movie, but several users are still busy downloading the pirated version of the movie. Now, Harish from Copyright Labs has planned to move to the Madras High Court to send a legal notice to all the offenders.

In an interview to an English daily, Harish said that his team had previously sent out warnings against downloading to the ISP addresses and individual offenders and the team is 90% successful in its attempt. But still there are some users, who defied these warnings. They are now going to register contempt of court cases and send orders to all of them, the TOI quotes him as saying.

The movie 3 opened to a big response at the Box Office across the state the last Friday and it has done wonderful collection. But the producers of the film were not very happy with its performance as it was not up to their exceptions. They think that piracy of the film has badly affected its business.

However, Harish said that his team will provide the technological support to films that sign up with the Copyright Labs, the rest of it is left to the law. "With this example, where we work in tandem with the court, we want to show that it isn't easy for pirates to survive," the TOI quotes him as saying.
