The Maharashtra Police’s cyber cell has taken swift action by registering an FIR against an anonymous user, @sujataindia1st, for uploading a manipulated video of actor Ranveer Singh. The altered video, which featured Ranveer allegedly endorsing a political party, sparked outrage and concern. Reacting to the incident, Ranveer’s father, Jagjit Singh Bhavnani, filed a complaint, leading to the registration of the FIR. The malicious video distorted Ranveer’s actual statement, which praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s efforts to preserve Indian culture and heritage. The falsified version portrayed Ranveer criticizing the Prime Minister and promoting a political party, which Ranveer has explicitly denied having any affiliation with. The FIR includes charges under relevant sections of the Indian Penal Code and the Information Technology Act, emphasizing the seriousness of the offense. The incident highlights the growing threat of deepfake technology, which can be deployed to spread misinformation and defame individuals. The authorities are investigating the case, and further updates are expected.
