Deepfake Abuse Targeting Mrunal Thakur Prompted Court Threat

Mrunal Thakur, a rising name in Bollywood, announced on social channels that any continued deepfake abuse will be taken to court. The actress highlighted that fraudulent videos and photos using her likeness not only violate her privacy but also distort her public image.

She referenced recent legal provisions that allow victims to seek damages and injunctions, signaling that she is prepared to file formal complaints if the infringing material is not removed promptly. Thakur’s statement arrived after several manipulated clips surfaced online, prompting backlash from followers.

Her filmography includes a leading role in "Do Deewane Sahar Mein," a romantic‑comedy that performed well at the box office, and a part in the action‑drama "Dakaait – Ek Prem Katha," where she portrayed the character Saraswati. The actress’s proactive legal stance underscores a growing trend among Indian celebrities to protect their digital identities.
