Many conspiracy theories have been doing the rounds
Some think it’s the CBFC, because revenge is a dish best served pirated
After free Editing and Publicity, Censor Board now starts Distribution.#UdtaPunjabLeaked

There’s only one copy watermarked Censor Copy and if that has to be leaked to Torrents, then #Sanskaari owes an explanation. #UdtaPunjab

After #UdtaPunjabLeaked, it is easy to see Censor Board works not on principles of professionalism, but on chamchagiri and revenge tactics.

Some blame Anurag Kashyap, the ‘lover of Torrents’, for the leak:
On AIB Podcast Anurag Kashyap was saying that Torrents are good for Cinema ..
today Udta Punjab got leaked on torrent before its release— SHAH RUKH KHAN (@SRKswarrior1) June 15, 2016
Means #UdtaPunjab has been leaked on net by one of the staff of producers only or it’s a publicity stunt by Anurag kashyap himself.

This is the most epic one. Some think it’s Team Udta Punjab, to save face if the film tanks
#WhoLeakedUdta this is propaganda, movie will flop anyway and then they can blame piracy for that

Now #UdtaPunjabLeaked is trending. Have an eerie feeling that the entire controversy right from the word go is well planned & scripted.

When it comes to Piracy, it seems Twitterati is not afraid to question those in the higher echelons of power & politics either
Arvind Kejriwal and AAP, of course, are among the usual suspects :

Because Modi supporters, like their leader, don’t believe in court rulings that hurt their fragile egos. #UdtaPunjabLeaked

These Modi Bhakts and Chamchas are capable of any low. Pahlaj Nihalani is just one of them. #UdtaPunjabLeaked

Team Udta has filed an FIR against the leak and until investigations bear fruit, all that the public can do is contemplate. And invent more conspiracy theories.
