Overview
- Shalini Pandey posted on Instagram on Monday that a sexually suggestive video circulating online is fake and was created with artificial intelligence.
- She called the fabrication deeply disturbing, condemned misuse of technology to target and harm people—especially women—and asked followers not to share, forward, download, or engage with the clip.
- Pandey asked social media users to report the clip immediately to platform moderators instead of amplifying it and urged public responsibility to limit its spread.
- News reports say the clip went viral across Instagram and other platforms, but none of the coverage has identified the clip’s creator or reported any formal legal action by Pandey.
- The case is being reported as part of a wider rise in AI-manipulated content targeting Indian public figures, raising questions about platform takedown practices, verification limits, and harms to privacy and reputation.
