Apoorva Mukhija has landed in fresh controversy after her ex-boyfriend Utsav Dahiya’s hurled accusations at her. Utsav alleged she falsely portrayed him as a cheater and abuser and used him for her content and fame

Apoorva Mukhija and Utsav Dahiya
Apoorva Mukhija has been grabbing headlines after she participated in Samay Raina’s show India’s Got Latent. Her rebel side was even seen in Karan Johar-hosted show The Traitors where she was among the strongest contenders. After her exit, she has been under fire for her personality. After Sufi Motiwala confirmed not being friends with her, Apoorva’s ex-boyfriend Utsav Dahiya has accused her of cheating.
On Sunday, Utsav shared a video on Instagram of a song he composed, titled Cute Little Red Flag (a phrase Apoorva often uses in her storytime videos). In the song, Utsav warned Apoorva to stop spreading lies about him. One of the lyrics read, “Pucha maine ghatiya kyun bola mujhe duniya ke liye, kehti baby yeh toh sab dhandha hai mere liye (I asked why you called me disgusting in front of the world, you said baby, this is all just business for me)."
A part of his caption read, “Ab agar koi aur bakwaas kari toh main seedha receipts nikalunga. Never try to gain sympathy by fabricating lies or pushing false narratives just to make content and assassinate someone’s character online. Having a big following doesn’t give you the right to bully your way by rage-baiting your audience and unleashing them on others.”
