Fans of the movie Pushpa 2 burst crackers inside a cinema theatre during its screening.
Publisher’s rating: FALSE
FACTLY identifies the video as footage of a firecracker incident during a screening of Tiger 3 at Mohan Cinema in Malegaon, Maharashtra, not a Pushpa 2 screening. It says fireworks went off near the seating area during the 21:30 show on 12 November 2023, causing a stampede-like situation.
just 1 teaspoon of flaxseed a day make your breasts grow?
Publisher’s rating: Mostly False
The review says there is no evidence that one teaspoon of flaxseed daily causes noticeable breast growth, and that it is not medically recommended for that purpose. Although flaxseed contains phytoestrogens, the review describes their effect on breast tissue as minimal.

Even one sip of alcohol can put you at risk of cancer.
Publisher’s rating: While alcohol consumption is linked to an increased risk of certain cancers, the claim that a single sip leads to cancer risk oversimplifies the relationship. The risk depends on the amount and frequency of consumption, as well as individual health and lifestyle factors.

Dr Fauci admitted 72 childhood vaccines lacked safety testing
Publisher’s rating: False
Research from related reporting repeats the claim, quoting RFK Jr. as saying that “not one of the 72 vaccines mandated for children” had been safety tested in pre-licensing, placebo-controlled trials. The excerpt says government lawyers allegedly acknowledged this in writing, but provides no copy of that admission to verify the account.

Rakesh Tikait was attacked with ink and a mic during a recent 2024 press conference in Karnataka.
Publisher’s rating: MISLEADING
The videos show two separate past incidents, not a recent 2024 press conference: Tikait’s tearful response at the Ghazipur border in January 2021 and an attack at a press event in Bengaluru in May 2022. The review says the 2022 attack involved a microphone and black ink.
