Apoorva Mukhija is currently in the spotlight for her b presence on Karan Johar's show, 'The Traitors'. However, this isn't the first time she's garnered media attention. Previously, she was embroiled in controversy surrounding a show called 'India's Got Latent' on social media.
Apoorva Mukhija: A rapidly rising social media influencer, Apoorva Mukhija is currently making headlines for her impactful appearance on Karan Johar's show, ‘The Traitors.’ But her life also included a period where her popularity became a source of trouble. The controversy surrounding ‘India's Got Latent’ severely impacted not only her career but also her personal life.
Apoorva has now openly discussed the personal struggles she faced following this controversy, detailing how she was forced to leave her home in a city like Mumbai.
Evicted After Police Involvement
In an interview with Mashable India, Apoorva Mukhija revealed that the controversy surrounding ‘India's Got Latent’ created significant upheaval in her life. She stated: "When the controversy erupted, the police came to my home to serve notices and conduct inquiries. This concerned the building management, who complained to the landlord about the repeated police visits."
Consequently, the landlord informed her that she had to vacate the apartment. Despite having lived there for only a year, she was forced to leave. This experience was extremely stressful and uncomfortable, as finding accommodation in a metropolis like Mumbai is already challenging for single individuals, a situation further exacerbated by controversy and police investigations.
Hinted at the Situation in an Instagram Video
In April, Apoorva shared an emotional video on her Instagram account, bidding farewell to her room and subtly hinting to her followers about her impending move. At the time, she didn't provide a clear explanation, but it's now evident that the reason was the ‘India's Got Latent’ controversy and subsequent police involvement.
Having navigated the controversy, Apoorva Mukhija has attempted to re-establish herself on screen. She is a participant in the reality show ‘The Traitors,’ hosted by Karan Johar. The show streams on Prime Video and features several well-known faces besides Apoorva, including Urfi Javed, Vishal Aditya Singh, and Arjun Bijlani.
However, a heated exchange between Apoorva and Urfi Javed on the show has also generated considerable buzz. Their argument has gone viral on social media, dividing fans into opposing camps.
What was ‘India’s Got Latent’?
‘India's Got Latent’ was a satirical video series that went viral on social media platforms. However, the series drew objections from several political and social organizations, leading to police inquiries and online trolling for Apoorva and other content creators involved. While some users criticized it for allegedly damaging India's image, others defended it as an exercise of creative freedom.
