How Taxiwala and Geetha Govindam Leak Left Producers Heartbroken

Producer SKN recently spoke about a difficult time when Vijay Deverakonda's films Geetha Govindam and Taxiwala were leaked online before their releases. He shared how the leaks affected the film teams and how everyone was deeply worried about the situation.

SKN shares that both Geetha Govindam and Taxiwala were leaked on August 10. However, the situations for the two films were completely different. Geetha Govindam was already scheduled to release on August 15, just a few days later. Because the release date was very close, the team believed that the leak would not have a major impact on the movie's box office performance.

On the other hand, Taxiwala was in a much more difficult position. The film's release was still far away, and several post-production works were yet to be completed. SKN said that the team feared the leak could seriously damage the movie's future. Since people had already watched the leaked version, there was a big concern that audiences might not come to theatres when the film was officially released.

SKN also remembered how he immediately contacted producer Allu Aravind after learning about the leak. He wanted to speak to him urgently and explain the situation. When he informed Allu Aravind that the film had been leaked, the senior producer became extremely emotional. SKN said that Allu Aravind was deeply shocked and saddened by the unexpected news.

He also informed director Maruthi, who was busy shooting another film at that time. When Maruthi heard about the leak, he too became emotional. SKN recalled that the director was very upset because everyone had worked hard on the project.

The producer said that the entire team felt helpless after the incident. Months of hard work had gone into making the films, and seeing the unfinished content leaked online was heartbreaking. He added that many producers faced similar problems during that period, and such incidents caused huge financial and emotional stress.

Despite the unexpected setbacks, both Geetha Govindam and Taxiwala were eventually released in theatres and received a positive response from audiences.
