Apoorva Makhija relocates to New York for MBA studies
Indian content creator Apoorva Makhija, widely known as ‘The Rebel Kid’, has relocated to New York City to pursue an MBA. Makhija confirmed her move via social media and during an appearance on the ‘Untriggered By AminJaz’ podcast.
She stated that the decision was driven by a desire to experience New York’s fast-paced lifestyle, architecture, and food, as well as a long-held ambition inspired by web series. Makhija noted that she applied to only one college in the city and was accepted, opting to live in a campus dormitory to return to student life.
A primary motivation for the move is to expand her social circle beyond the influencer community. She expressed a desire to meet people from different professions to challenge her perspectives, noting that her current social network in India has become increasingly limited to other creators.
Makhija also touched upon the mental toll of online fame, discussing the impact of ‘cancel culture’ and the pressure of maintaining a digital persona. While she addressed past controversies, such as those involving the show ‘India’s Got Latent’, she clarified that her relocation is centered on personal growth and academic pursuits rather than escaping specific incidents.
