Fact Check
Our team conducted research to check the authenticity of the viral video. First, we searched some keywords on internet, where we find that the video is not of an IPS officer but of an artist. Further in our research we come to know that the viral video is of Bhojpuri singer and actress Gayatri Yadav.
We checked the reels of Gayatri Yadav on the social media, where we found a reel made on Facebook on the Haryanavi song ‘Mera Balam Thanedar’. This reel was posted by Gayatri’s account, in which more than six million views have come so far.
For more information about Gayatri and her police dress we continued our research. We found a media report by ChaukasBharat. In this report, it was told that Gayatri Yadav is going to start her innings in films with the role of IPS in her upcoming film ‘Nehiya Ba Anmol’ produced by Bright Film Production. The shooting of the same was taking place in Lucknow.
We found a shared post from Gayatri Yadav’s Facebook account to a local channel. This post also has some pictures from the time of shooting of the film ‘Nehiya Ba Anmol’. Among the pictures, there is also a picture which is seen in the viral video.
So, it is clear in our research that the viral video is not of IPS officer but of Bhojpuri artist Gayatri Yadav.
