Jackson Wang REACTS to rumours of his role in Hrithik Roshan starrer 'Krrish 4': 'This is a joke between him and me'

Jackson Wang has addressed rumours linking him to Krrish 4, clarifying that his involvement is "fake news." The speculation began as a joke that spiraled into viral excitement after unverified reports suggested his appearance in the film. Wang playfully fueled the rumours earlier, but confirmed he has never acted before, making his involvement unlikely. Amid swirling rumours of a possible Bollywood debut, global K-pop star Jackson Wang has finally broken his silence on the buzz linking him to Krrish 4, the next installment in Hrithik Roshan 's superhero franchise. Addressing the speculation in his signature playful style, the GOT7 member clarified the truth behind the viral headlines—and why fans may have gotten ahead of themselves. In a video interview with PTI, Jackson laughed off the rumours, calling them 'fake news' and clarifying that he has never acted before, making his involvement in a major film like Krrish 4 unlikely. He explained that the buzz began as a light-hearted joke between him and a friend, which somehow spiraled into viral speculation.

After Basuli bust, STF hunts for cyber fraud kingpin operating from shadows

Rudrapur: Following the crackdown on a cyber fraud operation from an isolated homestay in Kathgodam's Basuli village, Uttarakhand's Special Task Force (STF) has intensified efforts to locate the alleged kingpin, Sachin Mittal. Officials suspect that similar digital fraud hubs may be operating in other remote areas of the state under the guise of legitimate ventures. The STF is analysing digital evidence recovered during a joint raid three days ago, which revealed a fully functional cybercrime control room at an unlaunched homestay in Amritpur. Acting on inputs, the STF, Cyber Police Station, and Kathgodam Police raided the premises and arrested six young operatives allegedly linked to a pan-India cyber scam network. "The arrested individuals were acting as money mules and account handlers. But the real aim now is to dismantle deeper layers of the gang and trace Sachin Mittal, believed to be funding and directing the entire operation," said inspector MP Singh of the STF. Investigators found high-speed internet connections, including Jio Fiber, and seized banking materials such as account numbers, IFSC codes, barcode scanners, and transaction devices. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 2025 Top Trending Local Enterprise Accounting Software [Click Here] Accounting ERP Click Here Undo Notably, none of the seized documents had the real names of account holders, pointing to deliberate obfuscation. The gang used social media platforms for communication and procured SIM cards and bank accounts through local agents. One such handler, Saurabh Tiwari, allegedly arranged account kits and SIMs via speed post and dropped them at designated spots for pickup. The six accused arrested from the Basuli homestay have been identified as Jatin Pandey of Amritpur (Bhimtal), Kamal Kishor of Jhadapani (Mukteshwar), Harsh Bora of Kishanpur Raikwal (Kathgodam), Kaushal Kishor alias Ashish Thakur of Barahimpur (Kannauj, UP), and two residents of Haldwani's Gora Parao area, Prem Kumar and Karan Kevat, both from Dhaulakhera DRDO Road. They allegedly earned commissions by transferring money obtained through phishing scams, investment frauds, fake parcels, and credit card fraud. The accounts were often opened using documents of unemployed or poor individuals lured with promises of easy income. "This network is exploiting both victims and unemployed youth. We're digging deeper into financial records and communications to track the movement of funds and assess the full scale of the racket," said inspector Singh. SSP Manikant Mishra confirmed the growing trend of youth being drawn into cybercrime. "These gangs operate like modern-day drug syndicates—only now, the drug is data and deception. In the last 18 months, we've registered 365 cyber fraud cases and refunded over ₹10.83 crore to victims," he said. The latest raid follows a series of recent cyber frauds in the region. In December 2024, Canara Bank's senior manager filed a complaint after two men opened current accounts for ₹50,000 commission; one handled ₹4.42 crore in two days, another ₹28.80 crore in six days. On March 1, police arrested two youths with ₹9.80 lakh and illegal firearms in Kashipur; they were allegedly routing scam funds through local accounts. Later in March, STF nabbed two Rudrapur men who earned over ₹1.2 crore in commissions for opening fraudulent accounts linked to a Telegram-based cyber gang. In May, Chennai Police arrested two CSC operators from Jaspur in a ₹1.39 crore scam involving an engineer. On May 29, seven individuals—mostly youth—were held in a ₹54,000 fraud where bank accounts were rented out for commission.
