Rebel Kid aka Apoorva Mukhija Kalava Video Triggers Backlash

The controversy began when Apoorva shared an Instagram reel while getting ready for the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. In the video, she is seen cutting off a Kalava (a sacred thread tied during religious rituals) from her wrist.

While doing so, she says, “Mujhe mere pandit ne bola tha ke aap yeh wala dhaaga mat kaatna. But, mere aur mere aesthetic Coachella pictures ke beech mein agar koi aa sakta hai toh woh hu sirf main khud.”

These reactions highlight how quickly online narratives can spiral, often without any confirmed information.

Rebel Kid’s Previous Controversy

This isn’t the first time Apoorva has found herself in the middle of a storm. Earlier in 2025, she faced significant backlash after appearing on Samay Raina’s YouTube show ‘India’s Got Latent’. The episode led to widespread criticism, legal threats, and intense online harassment.

She later addressed the situation, but the incident continues to follow her online presence.

Despite the growing speculation, Apoorva Mukhija has not commented on the rumours surrounding her alleged relationship with Amin Jaz or the ongoing criticism linked to her Kalava video.

For now, the conversation remains largely driven by social media, with no confirmation from either side.
