Hemanth M Rao's Sapta Sagaradaache Ello Side A is garnering a positive response from all corners and seems well on course, should the trend continue, to emerge as a box office success. The film has already received extremely encouraging reviews from critics and the recently held celebrity premiere show, too, saw some of the top names in the Kannada Film Industry raving about it. Hemanth's conviction, Charan Raj's score, Rakshit Shetty and Rukmini Vasanth's performances, among other things, are receiving a lot of praise.
However, just when the prospects are looking bright, the team suddenly finds itself facing a major roadblock. Earlier today, on the very day of its theatrical run, it emerged that Sapta Sagaradaache Ello Side A has been leaked online. A few social media users have brought to the team's notice that the film, unfortunately, has landed on piracy platforms as early as 9:30 a.m. on Friday, September 1.
'Say NO to Piracy,' says Rakshit Shetty & Co.
As countermeasures, team SSE has now urged everyone who comes across pirated copies of the film to report to a dedicated team, and has also revealed its anti-piracy partner. Hemanth Rao, Rakshit Shetty and the rest of the core team have sent out a new poster in this vein, sharing all the relevant details to curb the illegal proliferation of their film. Netizens, too, have condemned this with some of them promising to watch the film in theatres regardless.
In the recent past, several big Kannada releases have fallen prey to piracy and consequently, filmmakers have opted to work with private entities to counter the threat.
Sapta Sagaradaache Ello on the move
Many would know that the Rakshit Shetty and Rukmini Vasanth starrer also has the Telugu film Kushi to contend with at the box office. However, the Kannada film is holding its own in this clash, so to speak, with positive reviews to its name and all the existing shows on the opening day are already under the 'fast filling' status on ticketing platforms. With Kushi also generating a good response, it would be interesting to see how this exciting 'love story' contest unfolds at the box office.
