šŸŽ„šŸ”„ Kay Kay Menon in ā€˜Vote Chori’ Ad? Nope! Actor Slams Clip Misuse šŸ˜”šŸ“¢

TL;DR šŸ“°: Popular Bollywood actor Kay Kay MenonĀ has called out a political ad by the Congress partyĀ that allegedly used his footage without permission. The clip, originally from his Special OpsĀ promotions, was edited into a "Vote Chori" campaign video. Menon says he never acted in the ad and never endorsed any political party. The whole incident sparks a big debate on ethics in digital mediaĀ and rights of artists. šŸŽ­šŸ’„

šŸ•µļøā€ā™‚ļø Bollywood’s most intense actor Kay Kay MenonĀ just dropped a truth bomb on social media šŸ’£. The man behind iconic roles in Haider, Special Ops, and Black FridayĀ said a video from his web series promotions was chopped up āœ‚ļø and put into a Congress campaign ad — and he had no clueĀ about it! 😲 #KayKayMenon #VoteChori

šŸ“¹ The Congress ad in question was part of their #VoteChoriĀ campaign, aimed at accusing rivals of stealing votesĀ during elections šŸ—³ļø. In the viral clip, Menon’s Special OpsĀ character Himmat SinghĀ starts by saying, "Ruko ruko yaar, scroll karna bandh karo…", before the frame switches to Congress leaders talking about safeguarding democracy ✊.

🚫 Menon was quick to respond: ā€œPlease note I have not acted in this ad. My clip has been used without permission.ā€Ā šŸ’„ The post went viral on X (formerly Twitter) and Instagram, sparking outrage among fans and netizens. Many called it a clear violation of an artist’s rights. #MediaEthics #ActorRights

šŸ“œ Legal expertsĀ say this could count as a copyright infringementĀ and even misrepresentationĀ under Indian law šŸ“š. If taken to court, the case might involve defamation, unauthorized use of likeness, and intellectual property theft.

šŸŽÆ Why it matters for the working people: When powerful political parties start lifting content without asking, it’s a reminder that even everyday workers — from actors to farmers — need stronger protection for their workĀ šŸ’Ŗ. In a country where ordinary citizens already fight for their daily rights, media misuse by the powerfulĀ only makes it worse.

šŸ“Š In recent years, multiple public figures — from actors like Pankaj TripathiĀ to cricketers like Virat Kohli — have faced similar misuse of their image for ads they never endorsed šŸ. This shows how digital manipulationĀ is becoming a dangerous trend in politics and advertising. #FakeNewsAlert #DigitalSafety

šŸ’¬ People’s Perspective: Whether you agree with Congress’s politics or not, it’s wrong to drag someone’s face into a political battle without consent. If big stars can be exploited like this, imagine the common man whose videos are taken from TikTok or YouTube and twisted for someone’s gain šŸ¤¦ā€ā™‚ļø.

šŸ”„ MediaFx Opinion: Democracy is about truth and transparency, not cutting and pasting faces to sell a political agenda. Today it’s Kay Kay Menon, tomorrow it could be a school teacher, a street vendor, or even you. We need strict laws, quick punishments, and public awareness to stop such misuse before it destroys trust in media altogether. #JusticeForArtists #ProtectOurVoices
