PTI quoted the National Award-winning director saying that he wanted his film to travel festival circuits before its release in theatres to avoid indiscrimate sharing on the Internet.
“With the emergence of digital media, there is always a chance that the film might be illegally uploaded on the Internet. This trend has impacted the film industry in a big way… Directors now have to be extra cautious during the first screening of their films,” he added.
