In a strongly worded note, he wrote, "The re-release of Raanjhanaa with an AI-altered climax has completely disturbed me.

He wrote, "The use of AI to alter films or content is a deeply concerning precedent for both art and artists. It threatens the integrity of storytelling and the legacy of cinema. I sincerely hope that stricter regulations are put in place to prevent such practices in the future." Anand L Rai's Statement Director Rai also issued a strongly worded statement, describing the past few weeks as 'surreal and deeply upsetting.' He said that the film was "altered, repackaged, and re-released without my knowledge or consent" and admitted that it has been "nothing short of devastating." Rai also stated that the new releases, strips the work of its 'intent, context, and soul,' and warned of the larger implications of tampering with artistic integrity through artificial means. 'To cloak a film's emotional legacy in a synthetic cape without consent is not a creative act — it's an abject betrayal of everything we built.'
