A Local Channel has aired Rajinikanth's Film Darbar in Madurai: Darbar, the recent celebration of the fans of Superstar Rajinikanth, is grossing in huge sums across the world. Now, apart from piracy, the film caught under a different issue. According to a source, Darbar was aired on a locality in Madurai by a local TV channel.

Darbar has only released on January 9, 2020, which was just a week before the Pongal Festival. A TV channel named Saranya Cable TV Network in Madurai allegedly telecasted the movie on January 12, 2020. To counter the activities of the cable TV, the LYCA Production company, which produced the Darbar stepped into action.
