Apoorva gets rape, acid attack threats after attending Samay Raina’s show

Social media influencer and content creator Apoorva Mukhija is once again in the spotlight—but this time for deeply disturbing reasons. After her appearance on ‘The Latent Show’ alongside comedians Samay Raina and Ranveer Allahbadia (also known as BeerBiceps), Apoorva has been the target of brutal online harassment, including rape, acid attack, and death threats.

The controversy erupted following the release of the show’s episode, which triggered backlash online. While both Samay and Ranveer were summoned by the Mumbai Police for questioning, Apoorva became a primary target of misogynistic trolls. She had earlier taken a break from Instagram due to the harassment but returned recently to share screenshots of the vile threats she's been receiving—sparking widespread outrage.

Apoorva’s Instagram Return: 

Apoorva’s Instagram stories depicted a barrage of violent and sexually explicit messages aimed at intimidating her into silence. These threats have prompted an outpouring of support from various sections of the public, including fellow influencers, content creators, and concerned netizens who have condemned the toxic culture of online abuse—particularly towards women.

Many are demanding swift police action and stronger laws to tackle such cyberbullying and harassment. As the case gains traction, questions are being raised not just about the content of ‘The Latent Show’, but about the broader consequences of unchecked online hate.

Social Media Reaction:

“No woman needs to explain herself for retaliating against a vile comment on a public platform… let alone having to deal with death threats/ rape threats/ acid attack & in graphic detail,” shared a fan.

Likewise, another netizen shared, “Apoorva deserves all the hatred. Samay and Ranveer got what they deserves but suddenly sympathy for this girl unbelievable.”

“I’m sorry but if men who ACTUALLY commit crime got even 10% of the hate apoorva got the world might have been slightly liveable,” shared another user.
