Sushant Singh Rajput and Bhumi Pednekar's film, 'Sonchiriya' just released three days back along with Kartik Aaryan and Kriti Sanon's 'Luka Chuppi'. However, the film is not being treated as equal as it gained only 8% of the total screens. And not just that but a few theatres are also displaying a dubbed version of the film and in another language. 

Taking to his official Twitter handle, Sushant Singh Rajput posted his concern and wrote "My dear audience. Firstly a big thank you to all of you and the reviewers who are showering so much praise and appreciation on Sonchiriya! Despite a ridiculously low number of screens the film's been released on, we're getting rave reviews and also trends of growth,".

He soon then jumped on to matter saying that a few theatres are displaying a dubbed version of the film, which they have no authorisation to. " "However, a lot of you are writing into me with heartbreaking reports that the film is released in some 'dubbed' version which is not the same as the original version we have created. Please note that I have not dubbed for any version other than the original dialect. And neither have any of my senior actor colleagues who are a part of the film and who I've spoken with!" he wrote. 

He concluded his post by asking help from his fans to report the theatres, that are playing a dubbed version of the film so that he and his team can look into the matter.
