Scripted video of a Panipuri vendor falsely attributed.
A video showing a panipuri vendor drinking and eating unhygienically from his own stall is making rounds on social media platform X (formerly Twitter). Users are sharing this video and severely condemning the vendor for his activity.
An account with the username @MR_COOL77777 posted this video and wrote: “Abdul is infamous for no reason, sir The real mess is here”
Fact-check
To verify the authenticity of the above-shared video, the DFRAC team converted it into keyframes and reverse-searched them on Google. We found a similar video on the Facebook page of Sanjjana Galrani with the caption: “Health is Wealth” further adding “Thank you for watching! Please be aware that this page features scripted dramas and parodies as well. These short films are for entertainment & educational purposes only! Characters in this video are entertainment and educational purposes”
Conclusion
It is clear from DFRAC’s fact-check that the viral video has been misleadingly shared on X. Originally, the video was scripted and shared on social media for awareness.
Analysis: Misleading
