YouTuber-turned-actress Apoorva Mukhija, who was all over the news a month ago due to the India’s Got Latent controversy, was spotted enjoying Sabrina Carpenter’s concert in Paris on March 18, Monday. However, looks like she left the people around her disappointed after a netizen claimed that she hampering others’ view with her phone’s flash light, and got into a spat when asked to turn it off.
A video of Apoorva from the concert has now surfaced on Reddit, in which she can be seen recording herself with her phone’s flash light on. She also lip-synced and danced in the midst of the crowd and was seen speaking directly at the camera at one point.
The caption on the video translated to: “POV: We were at the concert, she was filming her music video…The security guard asked her to go to her seat but she didn’t care… Big flash in the face…”
Several comments under the TikTok video allegedly also claimed that she yelled at members of the audience when they asked her to lower her voice while recording her video and even argued when she was asked to turn the flash off.
As soon as the video went viral, netizens slammed Apoorva for her “embarrassing” behaviour. “Second hand embarrassment We don’t claim her, respectfully (sic),” a netizen commented, while another wrote, “International beizzati (sic).”
Meanwhile, Apoorva has been MIA from Instagram ever since she got embroiled in the India’s Got Latent controversy. For those unversed, she appeared on the show created and hosted by comedian Samay Raina as one of the panelists, during which she was seen openly using abusive language and asking a contestant if he had ever seen a vagina after being born out of one.
Multiple FIRs were filed against Apoorva, Samay, Ranveer Allahbadia and others, accusing them of promoting vulgarity online. Apoorva then recorded her statement with the Maharashtra Cyber Cell, and said that they were asked to be candid on the show and none of it was scripted.
Post the incident, she unfollowed everyone on Instagram and even refrained from posting anything on her public account.
Apoorva recently starred in Ibrahim Ali Khan and Khushi Kapoor’s film, Nadaaniyan, but even then, she did not post any content about the film or her role in it.
