Hyderabad: ‘Jailer 2’ actor Anna Rajan has spoken out against the circulation of her morphed images on social media, calling it a serious violation of her dignity and privacy.
The actor shared a strongly-worded statement condemning the misuse of her photographs and warned that those responsible for creating or sharing the edited images could face legal action.
On Tuesday, she took to Instagram to share a screenshot of one such edited image, calling out the misuse of her photograph and warning of legal action against those responsible.
The actor also sought the help of the Kerala Police by tagging the department in her post and urged Instagram to take action after reporting the content on the platform.
Anna alleged the image had been digitally altered and shared without her consent.
“This image has been maliciously edited and posted in an obscene and defamatory manner to damage my reputation. This is shameful, unacceptable, and a serious violation of my privacy and dignity,” she wrote.
“1 am officially reporting this account to Instagram and will be filing a police complaint under the applicable laws. Whoever is responsible for creating or sharing this edited content will be held accountable. Legal action will be taken, and I will pursue this matter until justice is served. Please do not support or share such abusive content,” she added.
Tagging the police in the caption of her post, she wrote, “This account has posted a maliciously edited and defamatory image of me. I request @keralapoliceofficial and @kerala_police @cyberdomekerala to take immediate action. I have preserved the evidence and will be filing an official police complaint.”
This is not the first time Anna has faced such harrassment.
Earlier this year, during the Attukal Pongala festival in Thiruvananthapuram, photographs and videos of the actor, captured from inappropriate angles, went viral on social media.
The images sparked widespread criticism, following which Anna issued a public apology despite not being responsible for how the visuals were shot.
“In between this sacred moment, some unwanted videos and clips were captured and shared. I trusted and respected everyone around me, including the media. It truly hurt me to see certain moments highlighted in a way that took away from the devotion of that day,” she wrote.
“If my saree, my expressions, or anything about me unintentionally hurt the sentiments of any devotee, I sincerely seek forgiveness,” she added.
On the work front, Anna was last seen in the 2025 film ‘Daveed’.
She will be making her Tamil debut with Nelson Dilipkumar’s ‘Jailer 2’, which stars Rajinikanth and Ramya Krishnan in lead roles.
