Pune-Based Actor Rahul Jagtap Falsely Accused In Sexual Misconduct Claim Involving 'Granddaughter' - Here's Truth Behind Viral Videos

A fabricated claim has gone viral on social media, falsely identifying Pune-based model and actor Rahul Jagtap as a man named Musharraf Khan from Haryana, who allegedly impregnated his own granddaughter. The misleading narrative is being shared alongside photos of Rahul with a younger woman, taken from a video shoot.

The photos, circulated on Facebook and X (formerly known as Twitter), show a middle-aged man with a young woman in a room. The caption falsely claims that the man is Musharraf Khan, who raised his granddaughter after the death of his son and daughter-in-law, and later developed a sexual relationship with her.

The allegation quickly caught the attention of users online, triggering outrage. However, according to a report in Aaj Tak, the claim is entirely false and baseless.

The truth about actor Rahul Jagtap

The man in the viral images is not Musharraf Khan, but Rahul Jagtap, a professional model, actor, and content creator based in Pune. Reportedly, Rahul is well known in the short-form content space and is the founder of a modeling school called Talent Wear House.

A reverse image search revealed that the viral images are screenshots from a video shared by Rahul on the short video platform Moj on June 5.

In the video, he is seen acting alongside a young woman who goes by the handle @princess_kaabya, an actor and digital creator from Nepal.

The two are frequent collaborators and co-stars in various short videos meant for entertainment purposes. Rahul's verified social media profiles clearly mention his profession and also identify his wife as Shilpa Jagtap, further debunking the wild and defamatory claim.

So, what was part of a scripted video featuring two actors was twisted into a sensational and damaging fake narrative. Rahul has not yet publicly responded to the controversy.
