Bajpayee urged everyone "to stop spreading such distorted content". "I would like to publicly state that I have no association or allegiance with any political party. The video being circulated is a fake, patched-up edit of an ad I did for @PrimeVideoIN," he wrote.

Internet reacts to Manoj Bajpayee's tweet
Soon after Bajpayee shared the post on X, many commented and extended their support to the actor. A fan wrote, "Glad you clarified it. People should verify before believing such edited clips, but I must say that this video was not posted by the real X account of @yadavtejashwi."
A comment read, "In today's digital age, deepfakes and deceptive editing are a genuine threat to every public figure's reputation. Relying on such manipulated content to assign party allegiance undermines the very foundation of informed political discourse." "File a defamation suit," tweeted a person.
Bajpayee’s post comes at a time when several celebrities are approaching the court to protect their identity and prevent the misuse of their names and photos via deepfake videos and AI.
Celebrities like Hrithik Roshan, Karan Johar, Suniel Shetty, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Abhishek Bachchan, and Akshay Kumar, have all approached the court to protect their personality rights.
