A few months ago, Sara Tendulkar, the daughter of Sachin Tendulkar, expressed her concern over the misuse of technology after a photo of her posing with her brother Arjun Tendulkar was morphed. In that fake image, which started circulating across social media, Arjun’s face was morphed into Shubman Gill.
And now, Sachin himself has become a victim of deepfake technology. After coming across a video, Sachin voiced his concerns over the misusage of technology. In that video, Sachin can be seen promoting an app by narrating how Sara also uses it to earn quick money.
Sachin took to X (formerly Twitter) to request everyone to report such deepfakes. He also wants the social media platforms to respond quickly to the complaints.
