Deepfake technology uses auto-encoders and generative adversarial networks to replace or artificially construct fine-tuned faces, emotions, and sounds. Although there have been significant advancements in the identification of particular fake images, a reliable counterfeit face detector is still lacking, making it difficult to identify fake photos in situations with further compression, blurring, scaling, etc. Deep learning models resolve the research gap to correctly recognize phony images, whose objectionable content might encourage fraudulent activity and cause major problems. To reduce the gap and enlarge the fields of view of the network, we propose a dual input convolutional neural network (DICNN) model with ten-fold cross validation with an average training accuracy of 99.36 ± 0.62, a test accuracy of 99.08 ± 0.64, and a validation accuracy of 99.30 ± 0.94. Additionally, we used 'SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) ' as explainable AI (XAI) Shapely values to explain the results and interoperability visually by imposing the model into SHAP. The proposed model holds significant importance for being accepted by forensics and security experts because of its distinctive features and considerably higher accuracy than state-of-the-art methods.
