The digital world erupted this week as rumors of a “leaked MMS” involving popular Splitsvilla contestants Justin D’Cruz and Sakshi Shrivas began circulating across social media platforms.
Fans and followers immediately flooded the couple’s comments sections seeking clarity on the situation that has dominated trending charts since January 11, 2026. While sensationalist headlines sparked widespread concern, the duo wasted no time in addressing the controversy to protect their reputation and set the record straight.
The Viral Controversy and Rapid Spread
Social media algorithms pushed the alleged “leaked” claims to millions within hours, creating a massive wave of speculation. Many users shared blurry thumbnails and misleading links, claiming to have footage of the couple in private moments.
However, eagle-eyed fans quickly noticed discrepancies, suggesting the viral content was likely a result of deepfake technology or a malicious attempt to tarnish their public image. The speed at which the rumors traveled highlights the growing challenges influencers face in the high-speed digital economy of 2026.
Justin and Sakshi, known for their strong bond since their time on the reality show, have often shared glimpses of their relationship online. This familiarity made the “leak” rumors particularly distressing for their dedicated fanbase.
Despite the noise, the couple maintained a calm exterior while their legal team began investigating the source of the misinformation. Analysts note that such incidents are becoming increasingly common as bad actors use AI-generated content to drive traffic to predatory websites.
