Headline: Pawan Kalyan Praises Hyderabad Police for Cracking Down on Film Piracy, Applauds Arrest of ‘iBomma’ Operator

Hyderabad: Actor and Deputy Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Pawan Kalyan, has lauded the Hyderabad Cyber Crime Police for their successful operation in apprehending the operator of the notorious piracy website “iBomma” (Immadi Ravi). The arrest has been widely celebrated by the Telugu film industry, which has been suffering significant financial losses due to widespread online piracy.

Kalyan expressed his appreciation on social media platform X, highlighting the significant impact piracy has on the film industry, where creativity and investment are at stake. He noted the helplessness of filmmakers in combating piracy on their own. He particularly praised City Police Commissioner V.C. Sajjanar and his team for their dedication and success in shutting down “iBomma” and “Bappam,” which are sites used for piracy.

Kalyan also commended Sajjanar’s broader efforts in tackling societal issues like betting mafias and Ponzi schemes, which financially devastate many. He emphasized the positive impact Sajjanar’s leadership has had on raising awareness and initiating action against these detrimental activities, not just in Telugu cinema but across the Indian film industry.

Commissioner Sajjanar confirmed the arrest of Immadi Ravi to the media, stating that four cases have been registered against him under the IT Act and Copyright Act. The arrest and website closures represent a significant victory for the film industry and a deterrent to other piracy operators.
