Bollywood icon Anupam Kher took to Instagram to debunk a dangerous hoax. A bogus account mimicking his style and using his video clips has been aggressively following his inner circle, sparking concerns over potential fraud.
Friends alerted Kher after receiving invites from the impostor profile. In a candid video response, the actor laid it out straight: he maintains just one authentic account. ‘Don’t fall for any follow requests from duplicates,’ he cautioned, highlighting a surge in celebrity impersonations aimed at scamming money through fake investment pitches in movies.
Kher’s proactive step protects not only his reputation but also his devoted followers from financial pitfalls. These scams often promise lucrative film deals, preying on trust in stars like him.
On a brighter note, the 550th project in his illustrious career, ‘Khosla Ka Ghosla 2’, is underway in fog-shrouded Gurugram. Kher posted atmospheric shots of the shoot, describing it as his first encounter with such thick winter haze in the Delhi-NCR region. Joining him are stalwarts like Boman Irani, alongside Ranvir Shorey, Parvin Dabas, Kiran Joneja, and Tara Sharma.
In an era of digital deception, Kher’s vigilance serves as a blueprint for celebrities and fans alike. Always verify before you connect.
