Apoorva Mukhija on why Uorfi Javed and her didn't hit off well in show

In her recent YouTube video, Apoorva recalled how she hadn't done any movies or anything big for people to know her when she shot for The Traitors, while everyone else in the cast was well-known. She recalled how she met Uorfi and Jannat Zubair in the car for the first time and added, "I had seen Uorfi’s show Follow Karlo Yaar, so I knew what she really thinks of influencers. That’s why I had a feeling our vibes weren’t going to match. I knew that if I were Maheep Kapoor, she would respect me. But if I’m just an influencer who has reached here by creating her own content independently, then why would she respect me?"

Apoorva went on to share that this made her realise she and Uorfi were unlikely to get along on the show. Recalling their argument, Apoorva opened up about what happened behind the scenes. She revealed that she had been feeling extremely anxious about her mother, as she had entered the show after a fight with her parents and hadn’t informed them that she’d be unavailable and without her phone. When she requested the production team for a phone call, they refused, leaving her in tears. Apoorva added that just before Uorfi approached her to ask why she was crying, she had already explained the situation to Jannat and didn’t want to repeat it.

She recalled that Uorfi got upset when Apoorva refused to talk and got angry. "**I couldn't care less that Uorfi Javed doesn't like me. You don’t see this in the show, but at one point, Uorfi called me and said, ‘B*******d Apoorva, come here.’ I responded, ‘Uorfi, calm down,’ and she completely lost it. She screamed in my face, ‘Do you even know who you're talking to? Am I on your level to be spoken to like this? You have no status to talk to me that way.’ After that, I started crying. Uorfi, hum dono ek level ke galeech hain babe (Uorfi, both of us are equally messed up, babe—no one is above the other). The only level where you’re ahead of me is that you’re more deluded than I am. So yes, I was really upset," she added.
