A fresh controversy has surfaced on social media after popular Punjabi singer Karan Aujla reposted a viral Instagram reel that criticises Kiara Advani for her alleged behaviour on a flight. The repost has intensified online chatter, with netizens weighing in strongly on both sides of the debate.
The video was originally shared by Instagram user Kartikey Tiwari, who claimed he was travelling from Jaipur to Mumbai with his mother and brother. According to his account, the family had booked business-class seats on the same flight as Kiara Advani and Kartik Aaryan, who were reportedly returning after promoting their film Satyaprem Ki Katha in Jaipur.
In the reel, Tiwari alleged that his mother mistakenly sat on a seat that was later identified as Kiara Advani’s. He claimed that the situation was handled rudely and expressed disappointment with what he described as a lack of basic courtesy from the celebrities. The influencer went on to criticise celebrity worship culture, stating that such incidents expose a gap between public perception and real-life behaviour of stars.

While the video initially circulated within limited social media circles, it gained massive traction after Karan Aujla reposted it on his Instagram story. Though the singer did not add any personal comment, his repost was enough to amplify the issue, leading many users to interpret it as silent support for the criticism.
Social media reactions have since been sharply divided. Some users backed the influencer, calling for celebrities to be more mindful and respectful in public spaces. Others questioned the authenticity of the claims, pointing out that the video only presents one side of the story and lacks any response from the actors involved.
