The internet is abuzz with drama surrounding content creator Apoorva Mukhija, also known as Rebel Kid, following allegations of cheating leveled against her by her ex-boyfriend, Utsav Dahiya. This comes on the heels of a public fallout with fellow influencer Sufi Motiwala, adding fuel to the fire. Amidst this controversy, speculation has arisen regarding Jannat Zubair unfollowing Apoorva Mukhija on social media.
The Allegations
Utsav Dahiya recently shared a song on Instagram titled "Cute Little Red Flag," a phrase Apoorva often uses. In the song and accompanying caption, Utsav accuses Apoorva of cheating on him during their relationship and spreading lies about him after their breakup. He claims she disparaged him to gain sympathy and online engagement, and when he reached out to her and her agency, his concerns were dismissed. Utsav stated that Apoorva's team told him he "should be happy" he got to date her. He warned her against continuing to spread false narratives, threatening to reveal evidence if she persisted. The lyrics also suggest Apoorva expressed that calling him "ghatiya" (disgusting) was purely for "business".
Prior to Utsav's post, Apoorva had alluded to a "toxic ex-boyfriend" in her content, accusing him of abuse and infidelity, although she never directly named Utsav. This led to her fans targeting Utsav online, which he claims Apoorva did not discourage.
Sufi Motiwala Ends Friendship
Adding to the drama, Sufi Motiwala, who appeared with Apoorva on the reality show "The Traitors India," recently announced that he is no longer friends with her. He stated that Apoorva did not support him when he was subjected to online harassment from her audience. Sufi clarified that his decision to distance himself was due to the lack of accountability for how he was being treated. He claimed that despite requesting Apoorva to ask her audience to stop abusing him, she showed no concern.
Jannat Zubair Unfollows Apoorva Mukhija?
While there's no official confirmation from Jannat Zubair about unfollowing Apoorva Mukhija, social media observers have noted that Jannat is no longer following Apoorva's account. This observation, coupled with the ongoing controversies surrounding Apoorva, has led to speculation that Jannat may have chosen to distance herself from the situation. It is important to note that Jannat Zubair and Apoorva Mukhija were recently seen together on the reality show "The Traitors". Jannat Zubair also penned a heartfelt note about her journey on the show after getting evicted.
Apoorva's Side of the Story
As of now, Apoorva Mukhija has not directly responded to Utsav Dahiya's allegations or Sufi Motiwala's statement. Her social media accounts remain active, but she has not addressed the controversies publicly.
The unfolding situation has ignited discussions about relationships, social media conduct, and the responsibilities of influencers. Whether Jannat Zubair's alleged unfollowing is related to these controversies remains unconfirmed, but the situation highlights the interconnectedness of the influencer world and the impact of personal disputes on professional relationships.
