The makers of Ramayana have issued a strict warning against people who are recording clips from theatre screenings and sharing them on social media.
They have warned that legal action will be taken against anyone recording or sharing unauthorised clips from cinema halls. They posted a legal notice on the film’s official Instagram handle on Saturday.
The film released on November 5 in Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada and Malayalam. The makers said footage is being recorded inside theatres and shared on social media and messaging platforms, and asked people to delete anything they have uploaded.
The notice cites two Bombay High Court orders, dated November 2 and November 6, 2026, in a commercial IP suit. “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,” it read.
It also warned, “Offenders will be reported to the authorities and platforms and will face criminal, civil and contempt proceedings, without further notice.”
Ramayana is directed by Nitesh Tiwari and produced by Namit Malhotra’s Prime Focus Studios with DNEG and Yash’s Monster Mind Creations.
Ranbir Kapoor plays Lord Ram, Sai Pallavi is Sita and Yash is Ravana. It is the first of two parts, with music by Hans Zimmer and A R Rahman.
The film has earned over Rs 500 crore at the global box office.
