Apoorva Mukhija recently shared her thoughts on fame, saying it feels overrated in today’s world. She explained that with so many people becoming content creators, having 100K or even 1 million followers doesn’t feel special anymore. Her words reflect a grounded mindset, showing that she doesn’t get carried away by social media numbers and still sees a big difference between internet popularity and real fame.
Apoorva Mukhija On Being Famous And Fame
Apoorva Mukhija aka The Rebel Kid revealed what being famous, fame, and courage mean to her. Talking to Bollywood Bubble, Apoorva said, “Honestly, I’ve never really felt famous. I don’t know… like, I feel Alia Bhatt is famous, you know? Ranbir Kapoor is famous, and Shah Rukh Khan is famous. This, all this feels like just masti to me, yaar. Now, everybody’s a creator. Everyone has 100K, 1 million followers; everybody has that. So I keep thinking, if everyone has it, then what makes me any different? I don’t think I ever felt famous, even before Traitors.”
Speaking of what fame is to her, the Rebel Kid said, “What I want is access. Like, when I’m at the entry of a club, I want people to be like, ‘Oh my God! That’s Apoorva! Get her the best table we have.’ That’s fame. For me, fame is the access to do things that the general public can’t. Otherwise, you know, being on billboards or people asking me for pictures, that doesn’t feel like fame to me.”
Apoorva Mukhija On Courage Despite Social Media Trolls
What does courage mean to her, Apoorva Mukhija answered, “God, that’s such a tough question. I think what takes the most courage in life is not forgetting who you are. It’s not to forget your principles, to not forget what you stand for, and to not let bad experiences define you as a person or change who you are at your core. Of course, they can and will change you. You have to evolve, but you can’t become heartless, you can’t become ruthless, you can’t become unkind or unloving. You have to stay that person on the inside. There can be guards, there can be walls, but you can’t forget why you started, where you started from, and how far you still have to go.”
