On Tuesday, actor Prithviraj revealed that he is not on Clubhouse, a social networking platform that is the cool, new thing among people these days. He also stated that a person had impersonated him by mimicking his voice and had even hosted a session on the voice-based platform. "Claiming to be me on social media is one thing. Claiming to be me, mimicking my voice, and using an ID that closely resembles my insta handle is all together criminal. Please stop this. I AM NOT ON CLUBHOUSE!” Prithviraj tweeted. The actor also went on to attach a screenshot of the Instagram profile of a person called Sooraj Nair, who has been impersonating him.
The actor went on to share a statement wherein he wrote that he hopes the imposter has learned his mistake. “Dear Sooraj. It’s alright. I understand that it was all meant to be a harmless joke. But I hope by now you’ve realised that something like this could have very serious repercussions. At one point, I believe more than 2500 people were listening in to you and that a good majority of them thought it was me speaking. I had repeated calls and messages from many people in and outside the industry, and it was imperative that I put an immediate stop to it,” he said. “I’m glad you admit that it was a mistake. Mimicry is a wonderful art form and I’m sure you know many of Malayalam cinema’s all-time greats have found their way into the industry from the world of mimicry. Dream big, work hard and never stop learning. I hope you have an illustrious career ahead and wish you the very best,” Prithviraj added.
