Due to the increasing use of social media and digital commerce, instances of online fraud have been escalating. Not too long ago, filmmaker Karan Johar disclosed that a popular actress fell victim to swindlers posing as merchants on Instagram, losing an amount of approximately Rs 82,000.
In a recent episode of the Con-versation Podcast, Karan Johar shared that a well-known friend of his, who happens to be an actress, had fallen victim to a scam. Although he didn’t reveal her identity, he stated that she was required to attend an international film festival due to this incident. One evening while browsing Instagram, she encountered what seemed like an exclusive designer ensemble.
The filmmaker added that the item in question was being marketed at a remarkably discounted price. Initially valued at approximately Rs 4.5 lakh, it was being sold for only Rs 82,000. Intrigued by the deal, the actress reached out to the sellers who promptly responded, emphasizing that she should act swiftly as it was the sole remaining piece. Delighted with the offer, she chose to buy it, believing it to be a great bargain.
KJo disclosed that when the actress asked for pictures of the dress, the scammers sent highly detailed images, making the transaction seem genuine. Trusting their authenticity, she then transferred the money using UPI. Unfortunately, the dress never came, and despite her multiple attempts to reach them for either delivery or a refund, she received no reply.
Currently, filmmaker Karan Johar is gearing up for his upcoming production titled “Tu Meri Main Tera Main Tera Tu Meri,” starring Kartik Aaryan in the leading role. There are whispers that Ananya Panday may join the cast as the female lead.
According to an exclusive tip-off from a reliable source, TopMob learned that the upcoming movie will be a joint production between Dharma Productions and Namah Pictures, set to commence filming in May 2025. This intriguing tale combines elements of adventure and everyday life, following the main characters on a global expedition. The film is under the direction of Sameer Vidhwans, who has already scouted locations internationally, and it’s expected to hit theaters in 2026.
