The controversy has heightened concerns within the entertainment industry regarding the expanding misuse of AI technology.

In an interview with News18, Shriya Saran recalled that the makers of Drishyam, her 2022 film where she starred alongside Ajay Devgn, allowed her to leave the set early as a new mother, sometimes even before Ajay Devgn himself. Speaking about the peculiar nature of AI-generated imagery, she remarked, "It's funny. Sometimes, I don't even know if it's me.

They change the size of your breasts, suddenly the cape that you were wearing is gone or your butt looks bigger. You've got to take it with a pinch of salt. Having said that, it's annoying and it's not right." Shriya Saran on AI Misuse
