Khushi Mukherjee, an Indian actress and social media influencer, has landed in a legal controversy that has drawn widespread public attention. The trouble kicked off when Mukherjee, in a public appearance, mentioned the past, when Yadav “used to message her a lot.” Soon after this escalated, we also saw Suryakumar Yadav heading out with his wife to offer prayers at a temple. Videos went viral, with the couple’s fans hailing the two and calling out Khushi Mukherjee.
An admirer of the cricket star Faizan Ansari, a Mumbai-based influencer, has already filed a defamation suit on January 13, 2026, at a police station in Ghazipur, Uttar Pradesh. Ansari says the allegations are fabricated and are a way to get public attention while ruining the reputation of a national sports icon. He also demands a seven-year prison term if they are proved to be baseless.
In the face of severe criticism, Mukherjee has tried to manage the situation by saying her words were “misunderstood and blown up” by social media. She stated that there was never a romantic connection and that all interactions were just friendly, especially when she reached out after India’s cricket losses.
On the work front, she has featured in the MTV Splitsvilla 10, and MTV Love School 3 is getting ready for her big screen debut in a film called Mutra Visarjan Varjit Hai, co-starring Arbaaz Khan and Rajpal Yadav.
