EXCLUSIVE: Mridul Meena Calls Out ‘Fake PR’ Amid Parth Samthaan Controversy; Says, “Paid Narratives Can’t Replace The Truth”

As conversations intensify around the ongoing controversy involving Parth Samthaan, Mridul Meena has taken a firm and unapologetic stand against what he describes as “manufactured narratives” driven by fake PR. In a strongly worded statement, he called out the growing tendency of shaping public perception through planted content, stressing that visibility should never be confused with credibility.

Mridul Meena Calls Out ‘Fake PR’ Amid Parth Samthaan Controversy

Mridul adds, “What we are witnessing today is not organic conversation, it’s a curated narrative. Paid content is being pushed in a way that it looks real, and that is where the audience gets misled. Just because something is trending or widely circulated doesn’t mean it holds any truth. It’s important to question the source before believing the story.”

He further states, “I have already clarified through my story that the video being circulated is a paid PR stunt. There is a deliberate attempt to package something fabricated as reality. This isn’t just about one incident, it reflects a larger issue where narratives are being engineered to influence perception rather than present facts.”

He adds more, “Fake PR thrives on silence and speed. It moves quickly, plants an idea, and before anyone can verify it, the narrative is already accepted by many. That’s the dangerous part it doesn’t give truth enough time to catch up. And once people form an opinion, it becomes very difficult to reverse it.”

He then says, “Being pulled into something like this without any involvement is frustrating. There’s a clear attempt to drag and associate names where they don’t belong. It’s disappointing to see how easily narratives are built without accountability, and how quickly people choose to believe them.”

He concludes, “We are choosing to stay dignified and not indulge in unnecessary back and forth, but that doesn’t mean we won’t call out what is wrong. Truth doesn’t need manipulation or amplification. It stands tall on its own, and eventually, everything built on falsehood falls apart.”

About The Controversy

Parth Samthaan is embroiled in a controversy concerning allegations of paid PR and targeted harassment. Key details of the incident reveal that Parth accused “paid bots” and fake accounts of being hired to post negative comments about him, his family, and his personal life on Instagram. In response to the trolling, Parth announced a break from social media and confirmed that he had filed a complaint with the cybercrime department to address the issue.

The situation escalated when the controversy led to an on-set confrontation with his co-star from Seher Hone Ko Hai, Rishita Kothari, and her partner, Mridul Meena, whom Parth suspected of being involved in the trolling. The altercation caused a temporary halt in the shooting of the show. Both Rishita Kothari and Mridul Meena denied the allegations, with Meena asserting that the narrative against them was an attempt at negative PR.
