Soon after the video went viral, a graphic designer was arrested by Hyderabad Police on the basis of the filmmaker's complaint. “It is very unfortunate that a small unfinished video clip of @BaahubaliMovie was leaked online yesterday. Person responsible for the leak was identified with the help of security features in place and was arrested late last night by police and handed over to cyber crime,” tweeted Shobu Yarlagadda of Arka Mediaworks.
The clip which shows lead actors Prabhas and Anushka in one of the scenes went viral within minutes after being uploaded on YouTube. Though the video was soon removed from the original post, it had already been shared a number of times.
The footage is said to be of an unedited version of the climax scene. Makers have requested the fans not to share the unfinished clip from the film.
