Viral Video Misidentified as Woman in Manoharlal Dhakad Controversy

A viral video showing a distressed woman crying and pleading for help to protect her family is being widely shared on social media platforms, especially on X (formerly Twitter). Many influencers and users falsely claimed that the woman is the same individual involved in the explicit expressway video with BJP-backed politician Manoharlal Dhakad in Madhya Pradesh. However, the woman in the viral clip is actually a social media influencer from Rajasthan, known as “Bikaner Ki Sherni,” and the video has been online since at least August 2024.

Some influencer posting this video with these claims:
@vishnuo36381035 posted this video and after sometime he deleted this post: (The post):

यही हैं वो मनोहरलाल धाकड़ के साथ जो वायरल हुई थी और अब रो रही हैं ये तो पहले सोचना चाहिए था रोड़ शो करने से पहले!

Another Influencer @Pankaj10031999, posted this same video witih this claim:

This is the one who, with Manoharlal Dhakad, whose video went viral and now she is crying, she should have thought about this before doing the road show! #manoharlaldhakad#highwayvideo

@Ra_Bies, posted with the claim:

I feel bad for this woman. Iss bechari ki kya galti hai

everal other users, including @join_neeraj1, @abhi_jamawari, and @riddle4uforever, also posted and reshared this misleading claim on their handles.

Truth Behind the Viral Video

When this video caught our attention, the D-Intent Data Team initiated an immediate investigation. We conducted a frame-by-frame analysis, performed reverse image searches, and scanned reputable news portals to uncover the facts. Our investigation revealed that the crying woman in the viral clip is not related to the MP politician incident. The video has been online since at least August 2024, and the woman is a social media influencer popularly known as “Bikaner Ki Sherni”. She was detained by police in connection with content related to opium, as reported at the time. In contrast, the explicit highway video involving Manoharlal Dhakad is a separate incident, well-documented in outlets like India Today and Dainik Bhaskar (English). The BJP-backed panchayat leader went missing after the scandal, which sparked public outrage and led to an FIR being filed.

There is no connection between these two women or events.

Intent:

Influencers are circulating old, unrelated videos with false claims to attract attention and mislead the public.
