The company’s official records showed an inventory of 119 hard disks, of which 66 were allegedly missing.
According to the reports, the missing hard disks contain raw shooting footage, edited scenes, post-production files, advertising projects, backups, archival material, and completed movie-related data. Interestingly, a part of the content is related to mainstream cinema and OTT platforms while the other part is majorly unreleased content.
In the police investigation, it has been found that the accused allegedly admitted of stealing 24 hard disks over the last five months. These drives were allegedly sold for Rs. 15,000 to Rs. 20,000 each. The content in the hard disks also includes footage from projects like Sobhita Dhulipala’s Made In Heaven and Ghost Stories as well.
The cops are including cyber team experts in the investigation to check whether the content was leaked online, while also checking whether any other employee had a role in the matter.
