Malavika Mohanan urges people to 'respect hard work' after 'Master' scenes leak online

Malavika Mohanan's upcoming film Master opposite Vijay is all set to release on January 13 and much to the surprise of the fans, a few clips from Master have allegedly leaked online. Malavika took to her Twitter handle and wrote that it takes time to make a 3-hour long film.

She urged everyone to respect the hard work and requested them not to share leaked clips as the movie will hit the big screen in just one day. As soon as the director of Master, Lokesh Kanagaraj learned this, he took to his social media handle and urged fans to not share the pirated copies.

Later, two hashtags, #Masterleaked and #WeStandWithMaster started trending on the micro-blogging site. Lokesh tweeted, "Dear all, it's been a 1.5-year-long struggle to bring Master to you. All we have is hope that you'll enjoy it in theatres. If you come across leaked clips from the movie, please don't share it. Thank you all. Love you all. One more day and #Master is all yours.”

Meanwhile, answering some fan questions, Malavika revealed what Vijay used to call her during the shoot and it is — Malu.

It takes months, sometimes a year to make a 3 hour long film. Please respect the hard work and the effort that goes into making a film, and kindly don’t share any leaked clips from #Master 🙏🏻 It’s coming to theatres near you in exactly 1 day :)

I missed them so much during lockdown! We saw each other continuously for 3 months and then didn’t get to meet for almost 10 months! Finally met a few of them 2 days back when I came to Chennai after all this time!☺️ https://t.co/fByhu5Qcv2
