HYDERABAD, Telangana — Vijay-starrer Bigil is unlikely to make it to Amazon Prime Video this month as planned, as a Hyderabad civil court has issued an interim injunction order barring the digital release of the film. The film’s Telugu version, Whistle, will also not be available for digital release. The film was supposed to premiere on Amazon Prime on December 13. Kumar had also petitioned the Telangana Cinema Writers Association in September this year citing “copyright infringement”. According to Kumar, the film Bigil, which was first named Thalapathy 63, has “striking similarities” with the life story of slum football player Akhilesh Paul.
