Mumbai Police along with AA Khan &
Associates managed to stop a huge piracy
racket. They raided and seized over 3,000
pirated DVDs and CDs worth around Rs 4
lakh and more. The raid was conducted at
Behram Baug, in a godown near Bandra
Court in Mumbai.
Around 1,000 blank DVDs, 21 DVD writers, 1
colour Xerox machine and 1,000 CD covers
were captured at the location. The pirated
CDs and DVDs included the much awaited
Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol starrer, My Name
is Khan. The movie released on February
12, 2010.
Along with My Name Is Khan, other movies
like Striker, The Wolfman and Law Abiding
Citizen was also found. Apparently, 3,000
DVDs have already been sold.
“Piracy is a serious offense and one which
is rampant within major parts of the city. It
has been noticed that major chunk of this
happens before or during a big release.
Considering the big release this time was
My Name is Khan, any pirates attempting to
copy or distribute this movie specially are
on our radar for this week and the coming
weeks that the movie would be running.
Piracy of the recently released Striker is
also on our list. Pirates should understand
that we have zero tolerance for their
actions and that they will be raided and
prosecuted for the crime they commit,’’
says AA Khan, former IPS officer and Ex.
ATS Chief.
In the last two months, AA Khan &
Associates have raided about 25 locations
in Mumbai and seized goods worth lakhs of
rupees and helping the movie industry in
curbing the menace of piracy to an extent.
