- However, shockingly for the filmmakers, a 6-minute long clipping of the climax scene of the movie was uploaded on Youtube.
- The producer of 'Baahubali 2' lodged a complaint with cyber crime wing of Hyderabad police today stating that last night he saw some leaked clips of the movie and asked his team to verify.
- The person held responsible for the leak identified was arrested by the police late last night. The film had been given for graphic designing at Annapurna Studio in Hyderabad. The producer's team found that one Krishna Dayanand Chowdary, a trainee graphic designer, accessed the server of Annapura Studio and stole the film's clipping.
- The team located Chowdary's house at Tolichowki and checked his laptop, where they find the stolen video. It was also revealed that he had also forwarded the clipping to two of his friends at Vijayawada through his phone.
- The leaked clip was obviously later taken down but it is said to be a part of the film’s crucial war sequence, reportedly. But the damage has been done. The footage of a battle sequence was uploaded on Youtube and widely shared on social media.
"Baahubali 2" is the sequel to "Baahubali: The Beginning". The film is slated to be released in April next year. Here's the first look of the movie.
