Actors Who Fell Prey To Private Video Leaks: A scandalous controversy has rocked the Indian entertainment industry, enveloping actress Oviya Helen, also known as Helen Nelson,. Allegations surrounding a leaked private MMS video purportedly featuring the actress have ignited a firestorm of discussion, with social media platform X (formerly Twitter) witnessing widespread sharing of screenshots from the video. The visuals depict a woman bearing a shoulder tattoo remarkably similar to Oviya’s, fueling speculation and debate.
Here are five actors who fell prey to viral MMS scandals:
Mona Singh
In March 2013, a private MMS clip allegedly featuring Mona Singh surfaced online, sparking widespread controversy. However, the actress swiftly denied its authenticity, asserting that the video was morphed. Taking swift action, Singh filed a complaint against unidentified individuals responsible for circulating the fabricated clip.
Opening up about the same, Mona Singh told Hindustan Times, “Someone has gone to the extent of morphing someone’s face onto someone else’s body. If this can happen to me, it can happen to any innocent girl. I’m glad that I’m a celebrity and can talk to the media. Only the media can help me get out of this.”
Shahid Kapoor
Shahid Kapoor, like many others, faced a similar ordeal when an intimate video of him sharing a kiss with his then-girlfriend Kareena Kapoor Khan surfaced online. The incident occurred when Shahid was just 24 years old. Although neither Shahid nor Kareena publicly addressed the leak at the time, Shahid broke his silence on the matter a decade later, sharing his thoughts on the incident in 2023.
He said in a conversation with Mid-Day, “I felt like my privacy had been invaded and I could not do anything to protect (myself). So I was a mess wondering ‘what’s happened, what’s going on?’ Of course it affects you a lot and at that age especially. You don’t even know your own feelings and you’re figuring out how to be with a girl and you’re dating. You’re both actors, in different places and then this happens.”
Akshara Sen
Bhojpuri actress Akshara Singh found herself at the center of a controversy after an intimate video purportedly featuring her was circulated online. However, Akshara promptly dismissed the video as morphed. In an interview with Etimes, she expressed her disdain for the alleged leak, stating, “I’m unfazed by this cheap act. I haven’t even bothered to watch the video, and I refuse to let it affect me.”
Riya Sen
Riya Sen’s burgeoning Bollywood career was derailed when an intimate video featuring her and then-boyfriend Ashmit Patel surfaced online. Breaking her silence on the scandal, Riya squarely blamed Ashmit for betraying her trust and violating her privacy. In an interview with Hindustan Times, she asserted, “Ashmit’s actions caused me immense mental agony. Every artist deserves privacy, but he conspired with crew members from our film Rokda to leak the video, revealing his untrustworthy nature.”
Radhika Apte
Radhika Apte faced severe online trolling when a nude scene from her film Parched was misinterpreted as a leaked personal video. Clarifying the misunderstanding, Radhika emphasized that the scene wasn’t even her. In an interview with Grazia, she shared the emotional impact of the incident, revealing that she was unable to leave her house for four days due to the widespread recognition by people around her, including her driver, watchman, and stylist’s driver. Radhika confessed that the experience affected her deeply, despite her attempts to ignore it.
