Abstract: Whatsapp, a social media app that allows instant, cross- platform messaging facility for the users to send or receive text messages, voice calls, video calls, images, documents and user location in just a single click from any location of the country. It makes the system of communication highly secure by providing the feature of end-to-end encryption. However, there are many cases observed where fake news or inaccurate information spread/ escalate like a world fire on Whatsapp. Concerning the problem (situation), we have tried to estimate the spread of Fake news on Whatsapp based on the Analytic Modeling, considering the number of feasible authors those are relevant for spreading of fake news (S), the wide variety of coetaneous authors who are highly active for posting the fake information (I), the range of authors who got the right information (R) through TV channels, newspaper etc who are inactive to spread the fake information. The conclusion came to be as unsteady because of the results that showed the trend of speeding fake news will be more in next upcoming years due to lack of awareness among the users.
