The answer is simply no, Swift was not in India at the time of the video, and after the post went viral, many people pointed out that the woman in the video was a popular social media influencer, Ashley Leechin, who is known for her uncanny resemblance to ‘The Fate of Ophelia’. Ahana Raheja had recently taken to her social media account to share glimpses of her wedding ceremony.

How did the rumors start
The rumors started when the videos from the ceremony were reshared on another social media platform. The post quickly managed to go viral, with many people expressing their shock over the news of the possibility of Swift performing in India. Many fan accounts also posted videos from the event and claimed that it was the ‘Blank Space’ singer who was performing; however, the truth was later debunked as many people pointed out that Swift was not even in India at the time. Many also pointed out that it was Ashley Leechin instead, who is known for looking like the singer. One comment under the post clarified that it was not the singer, citing that “The Sun reported that Taylor is in London.” Another person shared that “Damn it looks like her but definitely not her. She’s a billionaire already, even if she were to perform she usually does acoustic ones in wedding parties from what I’ve seen. This is somebody just impersonating her eras tour persona.”
