As Payal Gaming make headlines for the viral video, Indian creator like Sweet Zannat to faced similar harassment. Is it true? Read on to get the answer.
Indian gaming influencer, Payal Dhare, also popular as Payal Gaming, has been in news after her, personal video was leaked. Many have been circulating the explicit video and claimed that the person featured in it is Payal.
Addressing the controversy directly, Payal Dhare mentioned that her name and photos were being wrongly linked with a video that has gone viral on digital platforms. She put out her perspective in a strongly worded post.
In a post Payal Gaming said, “Over the past few days, content has been circulated online that falsely associates my name and image with a video currently being shared on digital platforms. I want to state this clearly and without ambiguity: the individual depicted in that video is not me, and it has no connection to my life, my choices, or my identity.”
Sweet Zannat is an Instagram and social media influencer from Mahendraganj, Meghalaya, India, known for posting funny and daily life videos.
A 19-minute and 34-second private video showcasing intimate moments of a young couple became viral on platforms such as Telegram, Instagram, and Facebook. Social media users alleged that the girl in the video was Sweet Jannat, an Instagram influencer from Meghalaya, resulting in significant online harassment and trolling. Individuals also requested the connection to the viral video in the comments of her posts.
The controversy continued for days, until she ultimately sensed the necessity to put an end to the gossip once and for all. On November 28, 2025, Zannat shared a video refuting any participation in the private video leaks, making several reasonable arguments. Zannat highlighted the physical contrasts between herself and the girl in the viral video.
Zannat also noted that the girl in the video spoke fluent English, which was beyond Zannat's capabilities, as she had only completed class 12 and was not well-versed in English. Reports later identified the couple in the actual 19-minute video as Bengali YouTubers, Sofik SK and Dustu Sonali.
Zannat later revealed that she had been distressed by a separate deepfake video created by two boys from her hometown using AI. The boys later issued a public apology in a video where Zannat was physically present with them. The Influencer accepted their apologies, stating that an elder sister would do the same for her brothers. However, Zannat warned the guys against doing the same with other girls.
