Actor Soori , whose film ‘ Maaman ‘ is currently playing in theatres, has made a heartfelt appeal to fans and movie lovers to avoid piracy and respect the hard work behind every film. Sharing his thoughts on his social media page, he urged everyone to act responsibly so that the film industry can continue to grow and thrive. According to him, piracy not only harms the creators but also damages the very spirit of cinema.
A film is a collective labor of love and passion
Soori explained that every film is the result of the combined efforts of hundreds of people who contribute their time, talent, and passion. He compared making a film to the birth of a child—starting from the story, shooting, post-production, music, and promotions, each stage is crafted with dedication and care. Whether a movie succeeds or fails, it represents a journey full of emotions, struggles, and hopes for everyone involved.
Piracy destroys years of hard work and creativity
Soori expressed his disappointment over illegal downloads and piracy, saying that when people watch and share pirated copies proudly, they destroy years of hard work in pursuit of just one view. Films, he said, are not only meant to entertain but can also carry important social messages and reflect real-life stories. Ignoring the immense effort behind a movie by engaging in piracy is not just illegal but also a deeply disrespectful and inhumane act.
