Shalini Pandey REACTS To Deepfake Video

Shalini Pandey made it clear that the AI deepfake video is fake and has nothing to do with her. She also asked people not to interact with or spread it.

It is deeply disturbing to see technology being misused in this way to target and harm individuals, especially women (sic)."

Additionally, Shalini Pandey vehemently denounced the circulation of such content. "I strongly condemn this kind of abuse and believe this kind of misuse of technology should never be normalised. If you come across this video, please do not share, forward, download, or engage with it. Instead, please report it immediately (sic)."
