In an unusual turn of events, actress Ishita Gupta has found herself amidst cyber turmoil as her Google Knowledge Panel underwent unauthorized alterations. It is believed that the hacker has manipulated the information displayed, notably substituting her actual age with that of another actress, Esha Gupta. The incorrect data on the panel suggests Ishita Gupta is 38 years old, a stark contrast to her actual age of 23.

The digital sabotage has unarguably raised concerns over the vulnerability of public figures' online profiles. Ishita Gupta, renowned for her role as Ayesha in 'It Happened That Night' and her appearances on international magazine covers, now grapples with a distorted online presence.
Moreover, the close sources to the actress suggest that it is not the first instance of cyber intrusion into Ishita's digital domains. Earlier, her YouTube channel faced a similar fate when hackers reportedly took control and altered the ownership of the channel. Such incidents not only compromise the integrity of an artist's online identity but also pose potential risks to their reputation.
When contacted for a response, Ishita Gupta had a hilarious reaction to the incident. She acknowledged that her team promptly informed her about the unauthorized changes to her Google Knowledge Panel. The actress couldn't contain her laughter as she commented on the absurdity of such actions, attributing them to individuals seeking attention and success through unconventional means. “According to Google, I am older than my mother. Haha!”, revealed Ishita.
The actress who celebrated her birthday in October, chose to have a low-key celebration with her friends on the Southwest coast of the UK. With the unpleasant Israel-Palestine war going on, Ishita decided to not celebrate her birthday with enthusiasm. Additionally, on her special day, the 10th day of the 10th month of the year, she made an official announcement of her NGO named ‘RehVamp’.
Coming back to her Google Knowledge Panel being vandalized, it is unethical and a serious concern to hack a public figure’s online page. Going through the social media page of Ishita Gupta, she assured her followers that her team was actively working to rectify the situation. She remains confident that the necessary measures will be taken to restore the accuracy of her page. With such incidents, it is critical to protect the social media pages of public figures from being prey to fraudsters in the digital landscape. Ishita Gupta was born on the 10th October 2000 in the city of Ludhiana, in Punjab. Her family had moved to Kolkata shortly after to permanently relocate to the United States of America. Ishita is currently pursuing a MFA in professional acting from the prestigious London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art.
