Journalism of Courage
Panga, starring Kangana Ranaut, Jassi Gill, Richa Chadda and Neena Gupta in lead roles, has become the latest victim of Tamilrockers, a piracy website that has been wreaking havoc for a while now.
Panga released alongside Varun Dhawan and Shraddha Kapoor starrer Street Dancer 3D.
Not only Panga, but Street Dancer 3D, web series The Forgotten Army, Telugu film Disco Raja and Tamil film Psycho have also fallen prey to Tamilrockers this week.
Despite receiving several warnings and court orders, the piracy website has not stopped being a troublemaker.
The website keeps changing its domain extension every single time. It can also be accessed through proxy servers.
The Indian Express film critic Shubhra Gupta gave Panga 3 stars.
Shubhra Gupta wrote in her review, "(Panga) ...gives us an array of wonderful women walking the talk. Ranaut has the courage to go plain-faced, minus pancake: her sure-footedness right through the film, on and off the mat, is spot-on. Chadha, armed with a bouncy pony-tail and buoyant back-chat, is a lot of fun, as is Neena Gupta’s bracing mother. The two current kabaddi players, whom Jaya spends time with, in the second half, both leave a mark."
