Actress Girija Oak recently went viral for her pictures in a blue saree, with many calling her India’s Sydney Sweeney and Monica Bellucci. She was also tagged a ‘national crush’ after AI-morphed explicit images of her circulated on social media. Addressing the issue, Girija revealed that she received creepy messages from men online, with some even asking for her ‘rate.’
Girija Oak Says She Got Creepy Messages From Men
On The Lallantop, Girija said, “Someone said, ‘I can do anything for you, give me a chance.’ Someone even asked my rate: Ek ghanta bitaane ki keemat kya hai (What is the price to spend an hour with you?). There are many such messages.”
Further, the 37-year-old actress stated that if the same men saw her in real life, they wouldn’t even look up, but behind a veil, people say anything. However, when face-to-face, they speak with love and respect. “This is a strange zone. There can be a big debate on how seriously we should take this virtual space,” added the actress.
Girija said, “Someone asked if anything has changed. I said no, I’m not getting extra work offers.”
Girija Oak Condemns AI-Morphed Obscene Images
After her AI-morphed photos went viral, the actress shared an Instagram video addressing the situation, explaining how the photos are being sexualised and objectified beyond her comfort.
She said this deeply bothers her, especially considering that she has a 12-year-old son. The actress added, “When something becomes viral, something is trending. These kinds of images generally get made and get circulated as long as people are clicking on your post and you’re getting enough likes, interactions and views. That’s serving your purpose. We all know how this game is played.”
