After weeks of eerie silence, influencer Apoorva Makhija a.k.a. The Rebel Kid has officially made her Instagram comeback—and it’s anything but quiet. With a chilling “Trigger Warning” and two hard-hitting posts, the 23-year-old, who boasts over 3 million followers, laid bare the online hell she’s endured—acid attack threats, rape threats, death threats, you name it.
In her first post since wiping her profile, Apoorva shared screenshots of vile, anonymous messages filled with violent and sexually explicit threats. “And that’s not even 1%,” she wrote, exposing the ugly side of online trolling in a way that shook the internet.
Her follow-up post, simple yet loaded, read: “Don’t take away the story from the storyteller.”
The timing? No coincidence. The posts dropped soon after YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia reappeared online amid the Samay Raina India’s Got Latent controversy—hinting at deeper layers.
Support poured in from fellow creators and fans alike, calling her brave, powerful, and resilient. But the bigger question remains: where are the authorities?
Apoorva’s bold return isn’t just a clapback—it’s a war cry. And the internet’s finally listening.
