New Delhi, India – Renowned gaming content creator Payal Dhare, widely known as Payal Gaming, has responded after a video clip went viral across social media platforms with claims falsely linking it to her. The incident sparked widespread discussion online, with many users sharing the clip without verification.
The video, circulated on platforms such as X, Instagram, and Telegram, was accompanied by captions suggesting it featured the popular streamer in a private moment. However, Payal has firmly denied any association with the footage, stating that the claims are completely untrue and misleading.
In a statement shared with her followers, Payal expressed distress over the spread of such rumors, emphasizing that fabricated or manipulated content can cause serious emotional harm.

The controversy has once again raised concerns around digital privacy, deepfake technology, and the responsibility of users to verify content before amplifying it. Experts continue to warn that false viral content can damage reputations and mental well-being, even when proven untrue.
Payal has requested her audience to rely only on official statements and to report misleading content, reinforcing her stance against online harassment and misinformation.
