Ad-Interim Injunction Granted Against Unauthorized Streaming Of Thamma : Madras High Court

The Madras High Court has issued an ad-interim injunction restraining internet service providers and cable operators nationwide from illegally broadcasting or streaming Maddock Films’ new release Thamma.

Justice N Senthilkumar passed the order on two applications filed by the production house seeking to prevent piracy ahead of the film’s release. The Court observed that irreparable harm could occur without such restraint. However, the Court also noted that the broad injunction could affect legitimate business operations and indicated that Maddock may need to indemnify affected respondents.

The interim order remains effective until November 14.
