Let's see how many of you do the right thing cause it's the right thing. For no personal gain. It's a film from the heart made for you all. And now it's in your hands. #piracydimaadi make it count you all. love and gratitude.

Ekta Kapoor: It's better to make dirty films than play dirty games!! Keep d sex dirty n d fights clean...sadly ppl do it the other way round!! #sickened #sad #butwewillfight.

Karan Johar: Viruses in the #UdtaPunjab links! Anyone downloading it will have a virus attack!! What a way to combat this awful piracy! #piracydimaadi

Shraddha Kapoor: Films are made with the hard work & passion of everyone involved in creating them. Please don't support piracy.

Arjun Kapoor: Viruses in the Udta Punjab online leaked links that crashes systems !!!What a way to fight this disgusting menace !!! #PiracyDiMaaDi

Sonakshi Sinha: Shocking how #UdtaPunjab has been leaked online. That too a censor copy. A lot of hard work goes into making a film pls say NO to piracy!

Sidharth Malhotra: Movie theatres r filled with dreams and entertainment,don't kill them ! say no to piracy #UdtaPunjab at a theatre near u.

Lauren Gottlieb: #UdtaPunjab is making history. Censor board revisions so more films like these can follow and now hopefully some anti piracy debates!

Anurag Kashyap: 'I have never downloaded a film on torrent, I don't know how to. Yes, occasionally I have seen downloaded films, borrowed from friends and found a way to pay for them later, by buying them on DVD or blurray, and when I say this, I also say that no one can stop your right to download a film. 

'This time it's a different fight, it's a fight against censorship and if you are that audience that always downloads a film, then I won't ask you to not do that, please do, but wait till Saturday which is the day you would normally download a film.

'Piracy happens because of lack of access and in a world of free internet, I do not have a problem with it. My problem is that this time its a case of vested interests trying to demoralise people from fighting for their rights. So, all downloaders of Udta Punjab, I urge, wait till Saturday till you decide to not pay for the film, don't download and share, curb the curiosity for two more days. Thank you for reading this.'

The film, which revolves around drug abuse in Punjab and how it resulted in a socio-economic decline, will release on June 17.
