NDTV
"Thank you Rashmika Mandanna for speaking up," wrote Mrunal Thakur
On Sunday, a deepfake video of Pushpa star Rashmika Mandanna appeared online, in which she is seen entering an elevator. The original video is that of British-Indian social media personality Zara Patel. Several actors from the film industry, including Amitabh Bachchan, Mrunal Thakur, have slammed the video on social media. Mrunal Thakur wrote in an Instagram story, "Shame on people who resort to such things, it shows that there's no conscience left at all in such people. Thank you Rashmika Mandanna for speaking up, and for addressing this issue that so far we have seen glimpses of but a lot of us chose to remain silent." I feel really hurt to share this and have to talk about the deepfake video of me being spread online.Something like this is honestly, extremely scary not only for me, but also for each one of us who today is vulnerable to so much harm because of how technology is being misused....
Mrunal added in her note, "Every day there are morphed, edited videos of female actors floating around on the internet zooming into inappropriate body parts. Where are we heading as a community, and as a society? We may be actresses in the 'limelight' but at the end of the day, each one of us is human. Why aren't we talking about it? Don't remain silent, now is not the time."
