Jr NTR and Janhvi Kapoor on Saturday, 3 October 2026, condemned an AI-generated morphed video of the song Chuttamalle from the film Devara: Part 1. The altered footage reportedly uses AI to change Janhvi’s appearance and create sexually explicit imagery without her consent.

NTR called the act ‘disgusting, sick and shameless’ and said he would take legal action against those who created and spread the content. Janhvi also said legal steps would follow. NTR urged state governments and the central government to introduce strict regulations against AI misuse.
Coverage is uniform in reporting the facts and the reactions of the two actors. All four outlets quote NTR’s post verbatim and note the legal action he promised. 123telugu.com and m9.news additionally include NTR’s appeal for government regulation, while telugu360.com and telugucinema.com omit that part, keeping the focus on the actors’ personal condemnation. No outlet questions the authenticity of the video or investigates who created it, they relay the statements as given. The uniformity of the quotes across sources suggests a wire-style relay of NTR’s social-media post. The story leaves open what legal steps will be taken and when.
