A deepfake is a form of synthetic media, such as videos, photos, or audio recordings, that undergo manipulation or creation through AI methods. These algorithms are employed to overlay or substitute a person's appearance in an existing video or audio with another person's likeness. This can be executed with remarkable realism, creating the illusion that the altered content is authentic.
Earlier, Rashmika Mandanna expressed strong disapproval on Monday in response to the viral circulation of her deepfake video on social media. ALSO READ: Tiger 3 Trailer OUT: Salman Khan-Katrina Kaif Return In YRF’s Spy Universe, Gets Hailed By The Fans- READ TWEETS

"Today, both as a woman and an actress, I express my gratitude for the protection and support provided by my family, friends, and well-wishers. However, if such an incident had occurred during my school or college days, I can hardly fathom how I would have coped with it. This is a matter that we must collectively address with utmost urgency before more individuals fall victim to such identity theft," emphasized a portion of her statement. In the widely circulated video, a woman bearing Rashmika's likeness is observed entering an elevator while dressed in a black swimsuit. The video rapidly gained popularity, with numerous social media users stepping forward to confirm that it was indeed a deepfake. Tiger 3 is helmed by Maneesh Sharma and stars Salman Khan and Emraan Hashmi in key roles. It is slated to hit theatres on Nov 12.
