On a scorching Sunday in the Bigg Boss house, Salman Khan didn’t just tease contestants about their outfits; he turned the room into a makeshift courtroom, demanding that anyone who fabricates AI‑generated videos face prison.
The actor’s tirade hit a nerve that goes beyond the show’s drama. He described deepfakes as “the new age of bullying,” noting how a single AI‑edited clip can instantly tarnish a reputation and spread like wildfire across social media.
“When someone uses AI to edit a clip and slanders you, that’s wrong,” Salman thundered. He added, “Those who knowingly create and circulate such videos should be sent to jail.” The call for imprisonment was not just rhetoric; he outlined a need for a new law that would make perpetrators legally accountable.
Salman also recognized the power imbalance in the digital world. While big‑name stars can lobby cyber cells, ordinary users often lack the means to trace the culprits behind a deepfake. He urged fans to report suspicious content and highlighted the importance of digital literacy.
Meanwhile, the Bigg Boss house was still buzzing with drama—actress Isha Rikhi had just been eliminated after a series of tense confrontations. But even as the show delivered its usual twists, the star’s message about AI misuse lingered in the air, reminding viewers that reality TV can spill over into real‑life consequences.
Fans now have a new question: Will the industry tighten its grip on digital defamation? Only time will tell, but Salman’s bold stance has already sparked conversations across Bollywood and beyond.
