Deepfake technology is one of the drawbacks of the ever-changing area of artificial intelligence. It allows fraudsters to not only change their voices to sound like someone else but also edit videos to seem real. Rashmika Mandana is the latest victim of deepfake.
A recent viral video showcasing what seemed to be actress Rashmika Mandanna entering an elevator has gone viral. However, following closer inspection, it is shown to be a deepfake – a video that has been digitally modified. The fraud is so convincing that it has received millions of views, including more than 2.4 million on the social media network X, formerly known as Twitter.
The video was published on X by journalist Abhishek Kumar, who expressed worry about the need for additional legal and regulatory measures to prevent the proliferation of bogus news on the internet. The first video, starring a lady called Zara Patel, was posted on Instagram on October 8. There is no proof that Patel had any involvement in the making of the deepfake video.

Unfortunately, this is not a unique event, as several celebrities from various areas have been victims of similar false recordings in previous years.
The video was also shared by Bollywood superstar
