R Madhavan warns fans against fake account claiming to be him on social media: 'Appropriate steps are being taken'

Actor R Madhavan has issued a warning to his followers about a fraudulent social media account impersonating him. The actor, best known for films like 3 Idiots, shared a post online informing fans that an individual has been using his name to contact people on social media.Madhavan clarified that the account has no association with him or his team and urged people to remain cautious. He also said that action is being taken against the person responsible.In his post, the actor wrote, “FRAUD ALERT… THIS PERSON IS NOT CONNECTED TO ME OR MY TEAM IN ANY WAY. THEY CLAIM TO PRESENT ME AND SPEAK TO PEOPLE ON THE I SOCIAL MEDIA ON MY BEHALF. THIS IS TOTALLY A FRAUD ACCOUNT KINDLY BE AWARE… NO other account either represents me nor speaks on my behalf on Instagram or any social media. PLS NOTE AND BE AWARE.. Appropriate steps are being taken to hold this person accountable.. @rohanmyra2 @instagram. (sic)”.To ensure people are not misled, Madhavan also shared a screenshot of the account in question along with the post.On the professional front, the actor will soon appear in the sequel to the hit film Dhurandhar, directed by Aditya Dhar. Madhavan plays IB director Ajay Sanyal in the franchise.Recently, he also spoke about how an unexpected twist from nature changed the plan for one of the film’s opening scenes. According to Madhavan, Dhar had originally imagined the shot taking place on a bright and sunny day, which would contrast with the tension inside the aircraft. However, the weather ended up altering that vision.Sharing the moment on social media, Madhavan wrote, “#Dhurandhar. Aditya had always imagined this to be a bright sunny day with blue skies to show the contrast between the beauty and the beast inside the plane. As luck could have it, I brought in the rain….because I was referred to as the RAINMAN on the set. Every time I came onto the set…there was torrential rain. But-this grey Skies and look worked out perfectly for us as the first shot…… sometimes it’s best to go with what is handed to you, because a bigger design is in place,” the text on the post went.
