The deepfake video of Rashmika Mandanna which went viral on social media created a huge debate. Rashmika came out with an open letter on how it affects her and the need for the government to take action on this misuse of AI technology. Even big celebrities like Amitabh Bachchan, Nani, Mrunal Thakur, Naga Chaitanya, Vijay Deverakonda and many others came in support of her.
The Delhi police filed a case and appointed a special team to investigate it. The police found the origins of this video and traced it back to a youngster in Bihar. What’s even sadder is that the guy is just 19 years old. This is how the technology is polluting young minds. He is not the maker of this video but he was the first one to share it.
It is known that the police department wrote an official letter to Meta asking them to send the details of this video. Using them, they took the young boy into custody and they are questioning him in order to find out who made the video.
The youngster agreed to have taken down this video on social media. But no one has been arrested as of now and a few are being questioned. Rashmika is currently busy with the promotional works of ‘Animal’. She is romancing Ranbir Kapoor in the film and she fell ill during the promotions. She is recovering from it and recently posted two photos on social media as well.
