BOOM discovered that the video has been digitally edited with a synthetic voice clone. In the original video, which was an interview with Asian News International (ANI), the actor lauded the prime minister and claimed that the latter was celebrating India’s cultural history.
“This is Modiji’s purpose. He intended to celebrate our sad lives, our fear, our unemployment and inflation. Because our India is now heading towards a time of injustice at such a pace… so we should never stop demanding our development and justice – this is why we must think and vote”, the actor says in the 42-second deepfake video.
