Alia Bhatt's deepfake video goes viral again, fans react

Alia Bhatt's fans were shocked and worried after a new deepfake video of her went viral. In the AI-generated video, Alia seems to be joining the GRWM (Get Ready With Me) trend. The video, posted on Instagram by a user named Sameeksha Avtr, has already garnered over 17 million views.

The Instagram user wrote in her bio: “All videos are created using AI for entertainment purposes only.”

However, soon after the deepfake clip went viral, Alia Bhatt's fans expressed their concerns about the use of AI. One fan wrote, “AI is becoming more dangerous day by day,” while another wrote, “I feel sorry for those who believe it is real.” A third user chimed in, writing, “I am scared of AI now,” Times of India reported.

This is not the first time that a deepfake video of Alia has gone viral on social media. In May this year, a video of Alia surfaced online showing her face morphing into the character of actress Wamiqa Gabbi.

On May 7, Alia Bhatt wowed attendees at the Met Gala in New York in a Sabyasachi sari. Meanwhile, another video of the actress, this time in a red sari, grabbed attention on social media. The video was shared by an Instagram account called Unifixface and shows Bhatt posing for what looked like a photoshoot.
