In the era of Artificial Intelligence, celebrities are falling prey to deepfake videos and viral clips that are demeaning and fake. The latest victim of deepfake was Ranveer Singh. The fake AI-generated video featuring the actor surfaced online in which he is purportedly heard voicing his political views. While the video from his recent visit to Varanasi appears genuine, the audio is of an AI-enabled voice clone.
He also recently addressed and warned the audience on social media by writing, "Deepfake se bacho dostonnnn." Now, in the latest development, Ranveer's official spokesperson confirmed filing a police complaint and the FIR has been lodged for further investigation by Cyber Crime Cell.
Issuing the statement, the spokesperson said, "Yes, we have filed the police complaint and FIR has been lodged against the handle that was promoting the AI-generated deepfake video of Mr. Ranveer Singh."
Workwise, Ranveer will be seen in Rohit Shetty's Singham Again.
