Ushna Shah calls out YouTube channel for posting a 'fake video' involving Feroze Khan

In the era of deepfakes and doctored videos, it's much easier for celebrities to fall victim to fake news and clickbait journalism. For only a quick buck and virality, some people use digital tools to put forth falsified narratives that instantly make rounds on the internet.

Lately, actor and activist Ushna Shah has become a target of the same and in response called out a YouTube channel for uploading a fake video of her addressed to her Habs co-star Feroze Khan and his ex-wife Aliza Sultan's domestic violence case.

Taking to Instagram, Shah shared a screenshot of a YouTube video titled, ‘Feroze's best friend, Ushna Shah breaks silence on Aliza's [alleged] abuse’. With a warning sign, the Parizaad actor requested everyone to report the aforementioned clip as it was fabricated and spreading misinformation on the internet.

Shah also captioned the post with a note explaining her action. She wrote, "Normally I ignore such nonsense, but the video is spreading like wildfire. Half a million views!"

She then proceeded to highlight the origin of the footage used in the clip. "Please report this. They have used a clip of me crying about a dog being brutally shot from two years ago and edited it," clarified the Habs actor.
