Superstar's Rajinikanth's upcoming movie Darbar, which is being directed by A.R. Murugadoss, has been in the news after a few photos from the sets of the movie were leaked online.

Now, according to media reports, the crew of the movie has been attacked by college students with stones after they prevented the students from coming near the set of the movie and clicking pictures. The shooting was underway at a college in Mumbai and a few students clicked photos and shot videos.

The members of the crew objected to this, leading to an altercation between them and the students. After they were not allowed near the sets, the students allegedly threw stones at the crew, forcing the director to take up the issue with the college management.

Upset with the episode and the leakage of photos, Murugadoss is reportedly planning to shift the location of shooting to somewhere else. According to a DTNEXT report, the director has also barred assistant directors and members of the production unit from carrying mobile phones to the movie set in order to prevent further leaking of photos.

Darbar will have Rajinikanth essaying the role of a cop after 25 years. The movie will have Nayanthara as the female lead. She has previously worked with Rajinikanth in Kuselan, Chandramukhi and Sivaji. Bollywood actor Prateik Babbar will be playing the antagonist in the movie.
