Apoorva Mukhija, also known as ‘The Rebel Kid’, became popular online for her unfiltered attitude and relatable rants, which appealed to the young audience. Known for her bold take and witty side, her videos immediately became a topic of discussion on the internet. But the same attributes got the content creator in trouble for her remarks on Samay Raina’s India Got Latent. Apoorva, along with other guest judges and the show itself, received legal notices and nationwide hate. Amid everything else, the media collectively highlighted Apoorva’s comment and several debates were organised to criticise her words. In a recent interview, the 23-year-old shared how she called up Rhea Chakraborty, who faced a similar situation after the demise of Sushant Singh Rajput and sought some guidance.

Apoorva Mukhija recently sat down for an interview with Yuvaa and opened up about the media trial and mental trauma she had to face after India’s Got Latent incident. She emphasised that before her fiasco, the content creation industry never witnessed a media trial of such a high magnitude. Apoorva admitted that she was unprepared for everything that came following that incident and discussed it with Rhea Chakraborty because she faced a major media trial herself in Bollywood after being accused of the demise of Sushant Singh Rajput in 2020. Recalling the call, Apoorva said:
“We have not seen a media trial at this scale. Creator industry mein. We have seen the Bollywood industry mein. Shoutout, Rhea Chakraborty. I spoke to her for an hour. I spoke to her on a video call for an hour. She got it. She knew what I was going through.”
