“I have really missed you. Don’t do this again, I am starting to cry. Every time someone asks me about you and says, ‘How were you friends with him? He’s so mean,’ I tell them… I would’ve killed myself if, at the time of the Latent fiasco, had I didn’t have Sufi. I wouldn’t have been able to get through that. You were the only person with me. I wasn’t dating anyone. Personally, in my life, as a friend.”

Both artists concluded their talk on a pleasant note by apologizing for their past mistakes that have caused their friendship to suffer a bit. Mukhija accepted her mistake of not providing him with a safe environment during tough times.

What Was The India’s Got Latent Controversy?

The controversy has its roots in a controversial episode of the popular YouTube talk show “India’s Got Latent” presented by the comedian Samay Raina.

What started as internet trolls turned into serious allegations against Raina and led to police statements, legal complaints and even investigations by bodies like NCW – the National Commission for Women.

As one of the prominent persons who was present on the episode, Apoorva received numerous death threats and was exposed to intense online abuse and rape threats that affected her mental state and professional career.
