Piracy has been a major concern for the film industry, with many movies and shows being leaked online on the same day as their release. This not only affects the box office performance of the movie but also deprives the creators of their rightful earnings. According to a report by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI), the Indian film industry loses around ₹18,000 crore annually due to piracy.

Piracy is a serious offense, with significant legal consequences. The Indian Copyright Act, 1957, and the Information Technology Act, 2000, provide for stringent penalties for copyright infringement and piracy. Individuals caught downloading or distributing pirated content can face fines and imprisonment. However, the enforcement of these laws remains a challenge, with many piracy websites operating with relative impunity.
Moviezwap and Filmyzilla are notorious websites that provide unauthorized movie downloads, including Malayalam films like "Charlie". These websites often upload copyrighted content without the permission of the creators or owners, which is a serious infringement of intellectual property rights.
