WATCH: Virat Kohli’s Deepfake Video Blasting Shubman Gill Goes Viral

This is not the first time Virat Kohli has become the victim of deepfake technology.

Former India captain Virat Kohli has fallen victim to another deepfake video on social media.

In this video Virat Kohli could be seen slamming Indian opener Shubhman Gill. The viral video shows Virat talking about Shubhman Gill what he lacks, and questioning his potential in cricket.

The viral video has once again raised concerns over the misuse use of AI and how dangerous it has become.

The video that went viral on X (formerly known as Twitter) shows Virat Kohli saying, “I’ve been watching Gill closely, he’s talented, no doubt, but there’s a huge gap between showing promise and becoming a legend.”

Former India captain in the edited video can be heard talking about Gill’s technique.

“Gill’s technique is solid, but let’s not get ahead of ourselves. People talk about the next Virat Kohli, but let me be clear: there’s only one Virat Kohli,” the fake Kohli says.

The viral video falsely depicts Virat praising himself that there’s only one Virat Kohli.

“I have faced the toughest bowlers, delivered in the most intense situations, and done it consistently for over a decade. You can’t replicate that with just a few good innings,” the video continues.

This video was shared on August 27. Since being posted, it has gained more than three lakh views. The share also has close to 4,000 likes. Many people took to the comments section of the post and shared their reactions.

People shared their reactions in the comment section of the video.

One of the users wrote, “No matter how arrogant people say he might be but he will never, ever say this.”
“If you didn’t say AI, I would have thought what!? Trusting it 95%. After saying it, AI, still thinking 50%,” another person wrote.

One of the users identified that it was not Virat’s voice and wrote, “I will be half asleep and still know that this is not how Virat talks, and this is not even his voice.”

“Only a matter of time before an AI-generated video also appears completely true,” one user jokingly wrote.

This is not the first time Virat Kohli has become the victim of deepfake technology. Earlier in February this year, a video went viral where he could be seen endorsing a betting application called ‘Aviator,’ which promises significant returns with minimal investments.
