Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar has spoken out against the circulation of artificial intelligence-generated videos that depict him in the role of Maharishi Valmiki. The actor took to X (formerly Twitter) to clarify that these videos, resembling movie trailers, are entirely fake and created using AI technology.

In his statement, Kumar expressed concern over the misinformation spreading rapidly online. He wrote, “I have recently come across some AI-generated videos of a film trailer showing me in the role of Maharishi Valmiki. I want to clarify that all such videos are fake and created using AI. What’s worse, some news channels decide to pick these up as ‘news’ without even verifying if these are real or morphed.”

Kumar urged both fans and media outlets to exercise caution when consuming or sharing such content. He emphasized the importance of responsible journalism in the age of rampant AI manipulation, stating, “In today’s time, when misleading content is being produced at great speed through manipulative AI, I sincerely request media houses to verify and report only after authenticating the information.”

This incident highlights the increasing challenge posed by AI-generated content, which is making it difficult for audiences and media to distinguish genuine clips from fabricated ones.
