Update: Deepika Padukone visited JNU in solidarity with students injured during violence in the campus by masked goons on the intervening night of January 5-6. The actor has attracted massive criticism by supporters of the BJP. The same image is circulating with a caption that mocks those targetting the actor. It says, “Deepika Padukone was a nationalist in 2019 and today after visiting JNU she has become anti-national? Wow hypocrites.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Photoshopped image<\/strong><\/h2>\n

As expected, the image is digitally altered. Alt News reverse searched the image on Google and found the real photograph, which was clicked<\/a> on November 30, 2018. Singh and Padukone had visited the Siddhivinayak temple in Mumbai, where the picture was clicked. It was carried by several media publications.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

As is evident from the image above, the duo had sported plain saffron scarves and not BJP scarves. The original picture was tampered with. The two images- photoshopped and real, have been posted together below for comparison.<\/p>\n
