The Indian film industry loses an estimated ₹20,000 crores annually to piracy (IAMAI Report, 2022). Among the most notorious facilitators of this loss is —a network of websites known for leaking Bollywood, Hollywood, and regional films in multiple formats (300MB, 720p, 1080p). Shivaay (2016), a film that boasted a budget of approximately ₹85 crores, became a prime target for Filmyzilla. Despite positive critical reception for its cinematography and VFX, Shivaay underperformed at the box office. This paper posits that while not the sole factor, the high-quality leak of Shivaay on Filmyzilla significantly cannibalized its potential revenue, particularly in single-screen theaters and B-2 city markets.
