Sachin Tendulkar‘s daughter Sara Tendulkar expressed concerns over the deepfake photos of her she has come across on X. She posted a Story on her Instagram to inform the fans that she has not created an account on X and that those parody accounts that are using her name are misleading people.
Notably, there are several accounts on X that have used her name and even garnered millions of views. Those accounts regularly post pictures of Shubman Gill.
I have come across some deepfake photos of me which are far from reality.Sara wrote on Instagram Story.
She further added:
A few accounts on X (formerly Twitter) have obviously been created with the intent to impersonate me and mislead people. I do not have an account on X, and I hope X looks into such accounts and suspends them.
Also, an altered picture of Sara with Gill has gone viral in the past. However, she had posted a similar picture on her Instagram but instead of Gill, she could be seen standing beside her brother and Mumbai Indians (MI) player Arjun Tendulkar.
