Mumbai: The makers of Ranbir Kapoor-starrer ‘Ramayana’ have issued a stern warning against unauthorised recording of the film inside cinema halls, cautioning audiences against capturing or circulating footage without permission.
The warning comes amid concerns over piracy and the unauthorised distribution of film content online.
In a statement shared on the film’s official Instagram account on Saturday, the makers urged users to remove any unauthorised footage already uploaded to social media and other platforms.
“Legal Notice. It has come to our attention that unauthorised footage of Namit Malhotra’s ‘Ramayana’ is being recorded inside cinema halls and circulated across social media and messaging platforms.”
“The Hon’ble Bombay High Court, by orders dated 2 November 2026 and 6 November 2026 in commercial IP suit no. 37230 of 2026, has restrained all persons, known and unknown, from recording, uploading, sharing or otherwise communicating the film or any part of it without authorisation,” read the caption.
“Offenders will be reported to the authorities and platforms and will face criminal, civil and contempt proceedings, without further notice,” it added.
Released on November 5 in five languages, ‘Ramayana’ features Ranbir Kapoor as Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi as Sita and Yash as Ravana.
Directed by Nitesh Tiwari, it is the first instalment of a two-part adaptation of the ancient epic, produced by Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Studios in association with DNEG and Yash’s Monster Mind Creations.
The film follows Lord Ram’s exile, Sita’s abduction by Ravana and the ensuing battle between good and evil.
Its music has been composed by Hans Zimmer and A R Rahman, while Terry Notary and Guy Norris are part of the action team.
The ensemble cast also includes Sunny Deol, Anupam Kher, Kajal Aggarwal, Rakul Preet Singh, Vivek Oberoi, Adinath Kothare, Arun Govil, Kunal Kapoor, Indira Krishnan and Lara Dutta. The film has reportedly grossed over ₹500 crore worldwide.
