A video going viral on social media (here, here, and here) claims to show a Hindu woman confronting a Muslim man after he removed his shirt in public to flaunt. Let’s verify the truth behind the video in this article.
Claim: Video shows a Hindu woman confronting a Muslim man after he removed his shirt in public to flaunt his physique.
Fact: The viral video is scripted and created by Tamanna Kohli, who identifies as a video creator producing daily life vlogs, prank videos, and lighthearted content for entertainment. We also found several videos on her channel featuring the same person from the viral video, who was removing his shirt. This confirms that the viral video is not real and is indeed scripted. Hence, the claim made in the post is FALSE.
A reverse image search of the keyframes from the viral video led us to a similar video on Instagram, uploaded by Tamanna Kohli, with the caption, “Whoever does, do the same. This is a message from ahead. 🙏”
On her Instagram handle, Tamanna Kohli identifies as a video creator. A link to her YouTube channel was provided, which reveals that she makes daily life vlogs, prank videos, and lighthearted content for entertainment.
Additionally, we found that the men featured in the viral video have also appeared in other videos (here and here) shared on her account.
To sum up, a scripted video of a woman confronting a man for removing his shirt in public is being shared with a false communal angle.
