Fact Check: A scripted video of a woman removing her burqa and performing Puja at a Durga pandal circulated as a real-life video

A video depicting a burqa-clad woman performing Puja at a Durga pandal, despite objections from organizers, has circulated as if it was a genuine incident. However, this video is scripted and does not represent a real-life scenario. We traced it back to a Facebook page called Sanjjanaa Galrani, known for sharing such scripted content for entertainment and educational purposes, which is not reflective of reality.

Sharing the video on X (Formerly Twitter) propagandist account @ajaychauhan41 wrote. You must watch the video, the video is from West Bengal. Please share your opinion in the comments on this devotion and faith of a Muslim woman towards Maa Durga. (Translated from Hindi)

Several other users and Influencers have also shared the video and made similar claims. Their posts can be seen here, @Bairagi_Panddit, @Ujjaval4JNP

The truth about the video, Fact Check 

As soon as the posts containing the video and claims came to our notice. Subsequently, we conducted research and analysis of the video and found that the video was not a real-life incident but a scripted video created for entertainment and educational purposes.

To verify the claims made by the users. We performed a reverse image search of some key frames from the viral video on Google Lens. This led us to a Facebook post containing the same video. The Facebook post includes a disclaimer that reads, Disclaimer: Thank you for watching! Please note that this page features scripted dramas, parodies, and awareness videos. These short films are created for entertainment and educational purposes only. All characters and situations depicted in the videos are fictional and intended to raise awareness, entertain, and educate.

Intent
