In response to circulating rumors and speculation, 24 Frames Factory is issuing an official statement regarding the theft of crucial Kannappa footage. A hard drive containing pivotal action sequences and critical VFX work was stolen during transit from Hive Studios in Mumbai to their production office. The package was intercepted and signed for by an individual named Mr. Raghu, who acted under the instructions of a woman named Charita, neither of whom are associated with 24 Frames Factory.
A police complaint was filed nearly four weeks ago, and the investigating authorities have been fully briefed on the identity of those behind the theft. Credible intelligence suggests that the perpetrators plan to leak over 90 minutes of unreleased footage online to derail the release of Kannappa. In response, the Executive Producer has escalated the matter to Cyber Crime authorities. 24 Frames Factory stands united with their team, cast, and technicians, and will pursue justice with full force. They urge the public and media not to entertain or circulate any pirated content and to support the artists and technicians who have worked tirelessly on the film.
The theft and attempted sabotage of Kannappa reflect a disturbing trend of personal vendetta-driven behavior in the industry. 24 Frames Factory is determined to protect their film and the hard work of their team. The company trusts that the truth will prevail and justice will be served.
The film's producers are confident that their efforts to prevent piracy and protect their intellectual property will be successful. With the support of the authorities and the public, they are determined to ensure that Kannappa is released without any further incidents. The film's success is expected to be a milestone for Telugu cinema, and 24 Frames Factory is committed to making it happen.
