Urfi Javed has strongly reacted to a news report that she charged ₹1 lakh to create a reel on the CJP protest. Urfi took to social media to criticize the author of the article Faizan Ansari and Hindustan Times, accusing them of disseminating misinformation without fact-checking.
Urfi said Faizan Ansari had targeted her in the past through negative coverage. She also claimed he had referred to her as transgender in one of his reports, which she said was defamatory and misleading.
Urfi wrote of her anger
"Faizan Ansari, who wrote this article, called me a transgender and has always written bad things about me."
She also dismissed the report that she was paid ₹1 lakh to post a reel supporting or related to the CJP protest. Urfi said the figure mentioned in the report is completely baseless.
She directly addressed the publication, calling for it to check facts before publishing stories.

"He says I charged ₹1 lakh for a reel on the CJP protest. You don’t know how much I charge for a single reel. Hindustan Times, why are you publishing fake news written by an author who has no credibility?"
The controversy has now spread to social media, and users are calling on media outlets to verify the information before publishing it. Urfi's supporters hailed her for speaking up against fake reports on the internet, while others asked for more transparency from the publication and the journalist involved.
Since then, neither Hindustan Times nor Faizan Ansari has commented on Urfi Javed's accusations. It is not clear if any legal action will be taken.
Urfi Javed is an outspoken social media personality and has always been at the center of online debates. That is the kind of boldness you can expect from her and what she is saying to be the chat.
In the digital age, stories can spread very fast and misinformation can go viral. This also poses questions about responsible journalism, fact-checking, and who can be trusted to present a story that is not true and how that can affect a person’s reputation.
The claims and counterclaims will be in the public eye until all parties have provided clarification. We recommend that people look for verified answers and that they have faith in the authorities; we don’t want to conclude too quickly.
