The Marathi film industry, one of the oldest and most artistically significant film industries in India, has undergone a renaissance in the last two decades. With hits like Sairat , Natrang , and Timepass , the industry has proven its commercial viability. However, this growth is threatened by digital piracy.

Accessing, downloading, or promoting content from such websites is illegal in many jurisdictions (including India) under the Copyright Act, 1957. It also poses significant cybersecurity risks, including malware and data theft.
