R Madhavan has always been vocal when it comes to issues he strongly disagrees with. This time, the actor has publicly called out a healthcare brand for allegedly misusing his identity online. The actor recently shared an Instagram story revealing this whole incident. R Madhavan’s legal notice to the healthcare brand was issued due to his interview clip being used without permission in a promotional advertisement. He described the advertisement as misleading and fraudulent.

Through his Instagram story, R Madhavan expressed anger over the way the brand reportedly used his interview footage to make it appear as though he was endorsing their treatment and products.

The actor questioned how organisations continue to use celebrity clips without consent and warned followers to stay cautious of such promotions online. He also stated that legal action had already been initiated against the company.

The now-deleted reel reportedly featured a clip from one of Madhavan’s interviews alongside a man claiming to be a doctor who spoke about the actor’s physical transformation.

R Madhavan’s fake endorsement issue also highlights the growing misuse of celebrity identities and interview clips in online advertisements. The actor publicly clarified that he had no association with the healthcare brand or its promotional claims.

In another statement shared online, R Madhavan directly referred to the advertisement as “fraud” and clarified that he had never endorsed the healthcare brand or its products in any capacity.

He explained that the clip had simply been lifted from an old interview and repurposed to create a misleading endorsement narrative. The actor also questioned how audiences could trust such treatments if promotional content itself was being presented dishonestly.

R Madhavan’s Instagram post on fraud advertisement has since been widely shared online, with many users discussing the increasing misuse of celebrity interviews and AI-edited promotional content on social media platforms.

On the professional front, Madhavan has had a busy run recently with projects like Kesari 2, De De Pyaar De 2, and Dhurandhar. In 2026, he returned as Ajay Sanyal in Dhurandhar: The Revenge, which emerged as one of the year’s major commercial successes.

The sequel follows Ranveer Singh’s character Jaskirat Singh Rangi as he transforms into Hamza Ali Mazari while navigating Karachi’s criminal underworld. The story also explores how R Madhavan’s role in Dhurandhar 2 becomes central to the larger mission involving terrorism, organised crime, and psychological warfare.

Alongside Ranveer Singh and Sara Arjun, Madhavan’s performance in the sequel received considerable appreciation from audiences following the film’s release.
