Rohit Shetty issues a public clarification after a viral social media post is circulated online, with the post falsely attributed to him in connection with comedian Gaurav Gupta’s remarks during the Bigg Boss 20 roast segment. Shetty says he does not have accounts on Facebook or X and that any such posts are unauthorised.
Across the reports, the core message is that Instagram is Shetty’s only official platform. Multiple outlets also note that the viral claim contributes to speculation about Shetty’s position amid the fallout around the roast content and its handling of comments involving Bigg Boss 20 contestant ScoutOP. Some coverage mentions the roast backlash context, while others keep the focus strictly on the impersonation warning.
Times of India and Free Press Journal add that the clarification follows attention on X, where the attributed post is described as reacting to or commenting on Gaurav Gupta’s roast style. NDTV similarly frames the story as Shetty warning fans against fake accounts, reiterating that he is not present on Facebook or X.
