When asked whether she was afraid of deepfake videos, Janhvi Kapoor responded, Main sochti nhi. Bachpan se kitna troll karliya…( I don't even think. How much I have been trolled since childhood.) Jab se social media ka boom hua hai, maine itni saari cheejein sun li hain, I don't think much can bother me. (I’ve already heard a lot ever since this social media boom).”

She continued, “To be very honest I don't know, if a photo gets edited, is it also called deep fake? That means it has been happening for many years. It happens a lot to me too. As a woman, you do get sexualized. Not just in this country, all over the world.”

The actress also said, “In this era, perhaps our society is moving in that direction that we are treating all these things with respect towards body image. As far as Deepfake, I can show you my phone right now, my tag list should be about 50 images of me in which I am wearing a saree but they edit it like a bikini on me. I see it all the time.”
