Vishal Gondal, Co-founder of Indian game developing company, that announced an action game FAU-G moderated by actor Akshay Kumar, issues a statement addressing the rumours surrounding it. In a statement, Vishal clarifies,
“This statement is being issued to address certain ongoing conversations/rumours on social media that FAU- G was conceptualized by late actor Shri Sushant Singh Rajput, which is completely false and baseless."

On the plagiarism row, he adds, “Further, there are stories doing the rounds that the poster of our action game, FAU-G, is plagiarised. We would like to further clarify that we have officially bought the license to use the image from Shutter Stock. Additionally, this is just a teaser poster and we would be releasing the official game Title Screen and in-game art soon."

"To protect our interests, nCore and our founders will be initiating all the necessary actions as may be legally advised against all such persons including any foreign nationals who may be percolating such baseless and fake news for the reasons best known to them," it read.
