The one-minute film was approved by the Film Censor Board on Wednesday, and Kapoor launched it at the Police Club in Azad Maidan. "The film is like a guide for parents to prevent their children from indulging in cyber crime and the general dos and donts.

More than 5,000 of the CDs will be circulated in schools, colleges, housing societies through clubs, and corporate houses.
