With the Lok Sabha 2024 elections just around the corner, all the political parties have started off with their electoral promotions and campaigns. And, to enhance the appeal among the common man, many political parties also seek the help of celebrities (mostly from the film industry) to help them with their party’s campaigning.

Amid such an atmosphere, there emerged a video in which Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan was seen appealing to the common public urging them to refrain from voting for a political party. In response to this video, Aamir Khan issued a clarification in which he mentioned very clearly that he has never endorsed any political party and that (such) deepfake videos were indeed alarming.
