'Raanjhanaa' AI re-release disturbs Dhanush completely: Legal action likely
Filmmaker Aanand L Rai and actor Dhanush are strongly against the AI-modified re-release of their 2013 film Raanjhanaa, which features an unauthorized alternate ending.
They say this move is a "very dangerous precedent" that threatens creative freedom and are considering legal action to stop it.
