Saamy
Square
Leaked
Online!
According
to
a
report
carried
by
News
18
(Tamil),
Vikram's
latest
release
Saamy
Square
has
fallen
prey
to
piracy.
The
full
movie
has
been
uploaded
on
a
few
websites
and
is
available
for
download.
Needless
to
say,
this
is
totally
unacceptable
and
it
might
ruffle
a
few
feathers.
Will
This
Affect
The
Weekend
Collections?
Saamy
Square
hit
the
screens
yesterday
(September
22,
2018)
and
opened
to
a
decent
response
at
the
Chennai
box
office,
collecting
Rs
64
Lakhs
on
Day
1
itself.
Saamy
Square
has
been
shot
against
a
relatively
high
budget
and
it
needs
to
have
a
good
first
weekend
in
order
to
be
a
success.
As
it
has
been
leaked
online,
the
weekend
collections
are
bound
to
be
affected.
About
Saamy
Square
Saamy
Square
is
a
sequel
to
the
2003
release
Saamy
and
features
Vikram
in
a
double
role.
Directed
by
Hari,
it
is
quite
an
action-packed
affair
and
features
plenty
of
mass
sequences.
The
film
has
received
mixed
reviews
from
critics,
however,
it
is
likely
to
appeal
to
the
masses.
The
Background
Piracy
is
a
major
problem
and
it
has
been
plaguing
the
Tamil
film
industry
for
quite
some
time
now.
In
the
past,
films
such
as
Mersal
and
Kaala
had
been
leaked
hours
after
hitting
the
screens.
And,
needless
to
say,
this
affected
their
collections
in
a
big
way.
To
Conclude...
Even
though
the
TFPC
President
Vishal
has
taken
several
steps
to
stop
the
menace,
it
still
persists.
Similarly,
the
steps
taken
by
several
government
authorities
too
have
had
limited
impact.
Let
us
hope
that
those
in
the
industry
are
able
to
find
a
solution
to
this
ASAP!
