According to a PTI report, Akhilesh Yadav's office had issued a statement clarifying that PK had been downloaded from an authorised site, in what seemed to be a move to salvage the situation. Akhilesh's confession that he had downloaded the film and watched before making it tax-free, had caused much embarrassment to the Chief Minister of UP. Sanjay Sharma, Founder of TAHRIR (Transparency, Accountability and Human Rights Initiative for Revolution) had also moved an application with the Hazratganj Police on January 2 for lodging an FIR against Yadav for the offence of downloading the film from a website and watching a pirated copy of the film. The statement issued, claims, "The screening of PK was done on Club X media server installed at Akhilesh Yadav's residence. The Club X service enables authorised private screenings of movies at Club X licensed auditorium of its members. Movies can be screened from the date of their theatrical release in India. Movies are delivered to the Club X media servers over a captive satellite network or are physically delivered and are stored in a digitally encrypted form. A licence is required to playback the movie each time and is issued based upon the authorisation received from the content owners."
