Unni posted a note on his Facebook informing fans that his Instagram account has been hacked. He wrote, “IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT. My official Instagram account @iamunnimukundan has been hacked. Any updates, DMs, stories, or content going out from that account are not from me — they are being posted by the hackers.”

He also warned fans not to engage with the account, asking them not to click any links or give out personal information, writing, “Please do NOT engage, click on any suspicious links, or share personal information in response to anything from that account at this time.”

Unni ended the note by telling fans that they’re working to get his account back, “We’re working with the relevant teams to resolve the issue. I’ll keep you all posted through verified channels. Thanks for your support and caution. #StaySafe #InstagramHack #ImportantUpdate.”

Unni has worked in mostly Malayalam and some Telugu and Tamil films in his career. He rose to fame in 2024 when he starred in Marco as the titular character. The film received criticism for its violence, though others liked it for that very reason. According to Sacnilk, it earned 102.55 crore worldwide. Last seen in Get-Set Baby, he will soon star in Mindiyum Paranjum.
