Jhanak's Krushal Ahuja hints at Instagram account being HACKED: 'Something FISHY is happening'

TV actor Krushal Ahuja recently took to his Instagram Stories to flag some odd behavior on his account, hinting that it may have been compromised. Known for his work in Star Plus' Jhanak opposite Hiba Nawab, the actor urged his followers to report anything unusual they may come across.

Guys, if you receive any unnecessary/cringe text… let me know cz idk something fishy is happening on my insta. Random pages and profiles were followed and random texts were sent: Krushal wrote, raising suspicion of a possible breach.

While he stopped short of confirming a full-fledged hack, his story indicated that he may not have been in complete control of his account for a while. Random follows and unsolicited messages are usually among the first red flags when an account is accessed without authorization.

Have a look at Krushal's Instagram story here:

This isn’t the first time a celebrity has faced similar trouble. Previously, actors like Amitabh Bachchan, Karan Johar, Rakul Preet Singh, Shahid Kapoor, to name a few have also reported their social media accounts being hacked or misused. In most cases, fake messages were sent from their profiles, or followers were targeted via suspicious links.

Krushal has yet to share whether he’s taken official steps to secure his account or reported the issue to Instagram. Fans are keeping a watchful eye for any further updates from the actor regarding the situation.

On the work front, Krushal is currently a part of Jhanak opposite Hiba Nawab. While the show has been seeing a downward trend for weeks now, a new storyline was recently introduced by the makers of the show. Whether or not this new storyline turns out to be a saving grace for the show, only time and TRPs will tell.

Apart from Krushal and Hiba, Chandni Sharma is seen essaying the character of a negative lead on the show.
