When empathy meets suspense on Instagram, it turns into a viral storm and that's exactly what happened when investment banker and content creator Utsav Dahiya dropped his song “Cute Little Red Flag” on August 17, 2025. The track, shared alongside a candid note, triggered speculation that its lyrics were thinly veiled digs at his ex, internet sensation Apoorva Mukhija known as The Rebel Kid.

Beyond the catchy chorus, Utsav’s caption resonated sharply: “Never try to gain sympathy by fabricating lies … Having a big following doesn’t give you the right to bully others by race-baiting your audience.” Netizens quickly interpreted this as a response to alleged cheating and disparaging content released by Apoorva.

Unpacking his background, Utsav isn’t only an aspiring musician but also an accomplished investment banker based in Sydney with Morgan Stanley a detail many fans overlooked until now. He’s originally from Mumbai, an engineering graduate, whose digital presence though modest earned him attention amidst this internet controversy.

The online reaction was instant. Users quoted Utsav’s lyrics and caption in support, with some even calling his track “classy revenge,” while others speculated whether Apoorva’s subsequent cryptic posts were a direct reply.

Between the sounds of the melody and the hum of social media, one thing’s clear: Utsav Dahiya’s song did more than entertain it reshaped the narrative around authenticity, influence, and the unfiltered fallout of modern relationships online.
