Apoorva Mukhija, popularly known as The Rebel Kid on the internet, is once again in the spotlight. This time, the buzz is not about her storytime videos but about her ex-boyfriend, Utsav Dahiya, who recently released a song that went viral and sparked fresh controversy.
Who is Utsav Dahiya Behind Viral Songs?
On 17 August 2025, Utsav Dahiya dropped his original track “Cute Little Red Flag” on Instagram. Within hours, the song started trending online. Many fans immediately linked the track to Apoorva because the lyrics and the title seemed like a direct response to her style of content. Apoorva often shares storytime videos where she hints at her past relationships and uses terms like “red flag” or “toxic boyfriend.”

The lyrics of “Cute Little Red Flag” contain lines that fans believe are directed at Apoorva. In one part, he mentions being called “ghatiya,” which people connected to a video Apoorva once made, where she jokingly referred to her exes as “ghatiya log.”
Utsav also wrote a note along with the song, warning against spreading false stories for sympathy and content. He even mentioned how he was once told, “You are a nobody, be grateful you even dated her.” The song is his way of responding to such remarks and claiming his side of the story.
Instead of replying directly, Apoorva shared cryptic Instagram stories. She wrote that she is now laughing off the situation and that she learns lessons only when she teaches them to herself.
