Prakash Raj AI photo taking a holy dip at Maha Kumbh

An AI-generated image of actor Prakash Raj has gone viral, showing him allegedly taking a dip in the holy waters of Prayagraj during the Maha Kumbh. The Singham actor voiced his frustration on Wednesday, responding to the misleading image.

He condemned those spreading the fake image and made it clear that he had already filed a complaint. Raj emphasized that it was shameful for people to circulate misleading pictures, especially during such an important event as the ongoing Maha Kumbh, and called for responsibility in the digital space.

Taking to his X account, Prakash Raj said, "FAKE NEWS ALERT… The last resort of bigots and coward army of ‘Feku Maharaj’ is to stoop down and spread FAKE NEWS.. even during their Holy ceremony.. what a SHAME .. Complaint has been filed against the Jokers .. face the consequences,"

Although Prakash Raj has not visited Prayagraj in the Maha Kumbh, several other celebrities have made their way to the sacred site to take a dip in the holy waters. Among them, notable figures like Adah Sharma, Guru Randhawa, Anupam Kher, and Shankar Mahadevan were seen participating in the spiritual event. The ongoing Maha Kumbh has attracted many public personalities, who have joined millions of devotees for this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Earlier today, actress and politician Hema Malini expressed her gratitude after immersing herself in the holy waters of the Triveni Sangam on Mauni Amavasya.

While showing gratitude, she mentioned, "I am feeling great. I have never had such an experience before. Today is a very special day, and I am fortunate to take the holy dip," she told the news agency ANI and then added, “Iss shubh avsar par mujhe yahan snan karne ka mauka mila, yeh mera saubhagya hai. Bahut hi accha laga hai, itne karooron log aaye hue hain, yahan mujhe bhi sthan mila, nahane ka. Dhanyavad."
