An interview clip of a woman has been widely shared on social media (here, and here) claiming that a Hindu woman gave birth to 24 children, including 16 boys and 8 girls. Let’s find out the authenticity of this claim through this article.

An archive version of the video can be found here.

Claim: A Hindu woman has given birth to 24 children.

Fact: The video is from an interview on the Bharat Prime YouTube channel, when they approached the woman after her video claiming she had 24 children went viral. In the full interview, she reveals that she acts in scripted comedy videos and clarified that the statements made in the viral video are false, and that she has only 2 children. Hence, the claim made in the post is FALSE.

A reverse image search of the keyframes taken from the viral video led us to the original video published on the Bharat Prime YouTube channel, uploaded on 11 August 2024. The Bharat Prime team approached the woman after her video claiming she had 24 children went viral.

At 8.50 minutes of the interview, she identified herself as Khushboo Pathak and revealed that she acts in scripted comedy videos and clarified that the statements made in the viral video were fictional. This information has also been confirmed in her other interviews (here and here).

In some interviews, she mentioned that she grows 22 plants along with her two children, making a total of 24 children. She said this in a vlog on her channel, where she similarly described her plants as her children. Khushboo and her team create content for the YouTube channel ‘Apna Aj.’ You can watch their videos here.

To sum up, a comedy content creator’s interview is being falsely shared as a Hindu woman with 24 children; she actually has 2.
