Another video of Bollywood actor Aamir Khan is going viral to claim that it shows him expressing his support for the Congress party in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
What is he saying?: He says in Hindi, "Friends, there are two types of guarantees in this election. One is good and the other is bad. The bad news is that false promises have been made again to ruin your lives. But the good news is that there are five [kinds of] justices for your development. The hand will change the situation."
How did we find out the truth?: We divided the video into multiple keyframes and performed a reverse image search on Google search engine.
This led us to the original video shared on 30 August 2016 by the official channel of the television show Satyamev Jayate.
The video was titled, "Satyamev Jayate Sunday Promo: Starts 2nd March".
In the original video, Khan talks about the return of his show in the month of March.
What does he say?: He says in Hindi, "Friends, I have two pieces of news for you, one good and one bad. The bad news is that I am coming again to spoil your Sunday. But the good news is that I will only ruin five of your Sundays in March."

Conclusion: Clearly, an edited video is being shared with a false claim that Aamir Khan has expressed his support for Congress for the upcoming general elections.
