New Delhi (Vishvas News): A video of a Pakistani man dancing to ‘Besharam Rang’ song from the movie ‘Pathaan’ is going viral on social media. While the country witnesses deteriorating economic conditions, the video is being shared with the claim that Pakistan minister Bilawal Bhutto is the one dancing in the clip. In the viral video, a young man and a young woman can be seen dancing to the song at a function.
Vishvas News found in its investigation that the youth dancing to the song of Bollywood superstar Shah Rukh Khan’s movie ‘Pathaan’ was not Pakistan’s minister Bilawal Bhutto, but a student named Mehroz Baig. He danced with his actor friend Inaaya Khan.
Claim:
Facebook user Satyaagrah India (archived link) posted the video on January 21, writing: “Pakistan is in the safe hands of leaders like Bilawal Bhutto…they want Kashmir”
Investigation:
To investigate the viral video, we first watched the video carefully. On this, ‘i.g Cyed. Haider’ is written. We searched it on Google with the keywords and found the viral video (archive link) on a Facebook page ‘Syed Tweets’. Bilawal Bhutto has also been mentioned in this. A user has written in the comment section, this with him is actor Inaya Khan.
After this, we searched on Google with the keyword ‘inaya khan actress’ and found Inaya Khan’s Instagram account. The video was uploaded on January 12. It is the longer version of the viral video. According to the description of the post, the name of the partner dancing with her was Mehroz Baig.
We also found the viral video on Mehroz Baig’s Instagram account. In this, more dance videos of him and Inaya can be seen.
We reached out to Mehroze Baig via mail for more details. He said, “I am the one dancing in the video. I am dancing with my friend Inaaya Khan. She is a Pakistani actor and social media influencer. I am 25 years old and I am studying Media Studies from Iqra University. I am also a social media influencer and keep posting dance videos.”
On scanning the profile of Facebook user ‘Satyagraha India‘, who shared the video with the misleading claim, we found that he has six friends.
Conclusion: The name of the young man who danced to the song ‘Besharam Rang’ from the movie ‘Pathaan’ is Mehroz Baig. Baig was dancing with his friend and Pakistani actor Inaaya Khan. This video has nothing to do with Pakistan minister Bilawal Bhutto.
