Sonu Thukral files complaint
Sonu, who has sung the track alongside B Praak, filed a police complaint on Friday over the matter, alleging that the viral clip was created using artificial intelligence. He took to Instagram to share a picture of himself with a police officer while holding a copy of the complaint. He wrote in the caption, “I have filed a police complaint regarding my song ‘Jugni’. The clip has also been edited using AI, and the AI-generated version of the clip is being circulated further. I will talk about it publicly soon.”
Jacqueline Fernandez and the other members associated with the song have not yet issued an official statement on the matter.
Internet reacts
Fans reacted strongly to the controversy. One comment read, “The seriousness of Sonu Thukral’s allegations should be thoroughly investigated, and if the allegations are found to be true, the person who made the AI-edited video should be caught as soon as possible.” Another user wrote, “15 days ago, Sonu Thukral’s music video Jugni was released, in which objectionable scenes of Jacqueline were shown. There was opposition to it on social media; people said good and bad things, but now the truth has come to light. Sonu Thukral has revealed that those scenes were created by someone using AI, for which he has filed a report in cyber crime.”
