Wed Feb 05 19:45:56 UTC 2025: ## Bollywood Star Nora Fatehi Falls Victim to Viral Death Hoax
**Mumbai, India –** Bollywood dancer and actress Nora Fatehi was the target of a widespread online hoax claiming she died in a bungee jumping accident. A video circulating on social media showed a woman losing consciousness during a bungee jump, accompanied by a false claim that it depicted Fatehi’s death. The misleading post, shared by an Instagram user named Sufiyan Khan, garnered over 18 million views before being deleted.
While the hoax initially caused widespread panic among fans, sharp-eyed viewers quickly identified the woman in the video as someone other than Fatehi. The actress herself remained unaffected by the false reports and continued her professional commitments, promoting her new song, “Snake,” with Jason Derulo, just a day after the hoax went viral.
The creator of the hoax has a history of spreading similar misinformation about other celebrities, highlighting the dangers of unverified information online. Numerous social media users condemned the spread of the fake news.
Fatehi, a Canadian actress known for her dance numbers in films like *Street Dancer 3D* and *Batla House*, has several upcoming projects, including a role in Netflix’s *The Royals* alongside Bhumi Pednekar and Ishan Khattar. She is also slated to appear in *Kanchana 4* and *KD – The Devil*. The incident underscores the prevalence of celebrity death hoaxes and the importance of verifying information before sharing it online.
