Apoorva Mukhija Reveals Suicidal Thoughts During Latent Controversy

Content creator Apoorva Mukhija recently shared a emotional conversation about her difficult phase after the controversy surrounding the YouTube comedy show India's Got Latent.

In the latest episode of Lock Upp: Sach Ya Sazaa, Apoorva revealed that she had experienced suicidal thoughts during that period. She credited fellow creator Sufi Motiwala for being her biggest support system.

Apoorva became emotional while talking to Sufi and expressed how important his friendship had been during the challenging phase. She said she would not have been able to handle the backlash if Sufi had not stood by her during the controversy.

Recalling their reunion after a long time, Apoorva said, '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, I didn't have Sufi.'

Sufi immediately responded, 'Don't say that.' Apoorva further explained that his presence helped her get through one of the toughest periods of her life.

The controversy surrounding Apoorva dates back to last year when she became a major talking point following an episode of Samay Raina's YouTube comedy show India's Got Latent. The episode faced criticism over allegedly offensive remarks, leading to police complaints and legal scrutiny involving Apoorva and other members associated with the show.

Following the backlash, Apoorva faced heavy trolling on social media. Sufi also opened up about their bond and revealed that the year they spent as close friends was one of the happiest times of his life.

The conversation ended with both Apoorva and Sufi apologising to each other and acknowledging the misunderstandings that affected their friendship. Apoorva said, 'I am also really sorry. I know those little, little things can hurt a lot. And I am sorry for not creating that safe space for you when you needed it the most.'

Apoorva's story highlights the importance of having a support system during difficult times. It also shows how social media can impact a person's mental health.

The incident has sparked a conversation about the need for kindness and empathy towards others, especially in the public eye.

For those struggling with suicidal thoughts, it is essential to seek help from professionals and loved ones.

In conclusion, Apoorva Mukhija's story is a reminder of the importance of mental health and the need for a support system during difficult times.
