Breaking: YRF, Sun Pictures warns the rooms of Rs. 2 Lakhs fine for the under-declaration of war 2 and the coolus collections at the box office
In an official communication, Gaurav Paul, who heads the distribution for Delhi and UP to YRF, has recognized the long -standing relationship with cinematographic partners, declaring that most have “resisted YRF as a rock for decades”. However, he also noted that there had been “wandering cases” in recent times when the box office numbers for certain films would have been underdeveloped in terms of cinema.

By placing legal and financial deterrents in advance, the studio sends a strong message that it will not tolerate the professional fault, in particular for a high challenges version like War 2.
At the same time, the declaration also brought a reassuring tone for compliant exhibitors, noting that “if all the rules are respected in terms of cinema, there will be no cause of concern”.
