The film which released on June 21 has been leaked on torrent website TamilRockers within hours of its release. The film fell prey to online piracy in no time.

Kabir Singh had a great opening at the box office. It raked in over Rs 20 crore at the box office on its first day itself becoming Shahid’s biggest opener so far. However, with the film being leaked online the film’s collections might take a hit. This is not the first time that TamilRockers have struck. They are well-known to leak Hindi as well as Southern regional films online.
