Jr NTR has issued a public warning after an AI-generated deepfake of his Devara: Part 1 song Chuttamalle — featuring Janhvi Kapoor, surfaced online. The video, which digitally altered the original footage to depict Kapoor in a sexually explicit manner, has been circulating across social media platforms since late Tuesday. In a statement posted on his official handles, NTR called the content ‘disgusting, sick and shameless’, adding that he would take strict legal action against both the creator and those spreading it. He didn’t name any individuals but made clear his intent to pursue criminal proceedings. 'To the scumbags behind this morphed Chuttamalle video, I will not spare any of you,' he wrote. The actor also appealed to the Indian government to introduce stricter regulations around AI use, stressing that such manipulations threaten cultural values. 'In a land that worships women as mothers and goddesses, where Matrudevo Bhava is not just a phrase but a part of our culture… some people have fallen so low,' he said. He urged the public not to watch, share or engage with the video, warning that 'today it is someone else. Tomorrow, it could be your mother, sister, wife or daughter.' The original Chuttamalle track, released in July 2024, was a major hit from Devara: Part 1, which starred NTR and Kapoor in a high-octane action drama directed by K. S. Ravindran. No official confirmation has yet come from the film’s production house or the makers about how the deepfake was created or distributed. But the incident has reignited debate over digital ethics and the need for real-time takedown mechanisms for synthetic media. As of Thursday morning, the video remains active on multiple platforms, though some accounts have been flagged. The next move? Legal filings. And possibly, a new chapter in India’s digital rights discourse.
