Has Vaibhav Suryavanshi really failed his 10th board examination?

An Instagram page under the name Satirelogy shared the post on Wednesday, claiming that Suryavanshi had failed his 10th-grade exams. The post quickly grabbed the attention of fans and netizens. But there’s a catch.

Amid the comments and reactions, users perhaps missed noticing the last two lines in the caption, which read, “This is NOT real news. This post and page are completely satirical. This post is meant for entertainment purposes only.” The post clearly labelled it as a satire.

Hence, the post was later revealed to be satirical, and it turned out that Suryavanshi is still in the 9th grade.
