Indian cricketer Arshdeep Singh and actress-model Samreen Kaur recently began a new chapter in their personal lives by announcing their engagement. However, the celebrations have been accompanied by unexpected social media attention, with old photographs and videos of Samreen alongside popular YouTuber Ashish Chanchlani resurfacing online. The development sparked speculation about her alleged past association with the content creator, prompting Samreen to publicly address the circulating claims and clarify the circumstances behind the old footage.

Samreen Kaur breaks silence on controversy involving YouTuber Ashish Chanchlani

Taking to Instagram Stories on Friday, Samreen expressed her disappointment over the circulation of old photographs and video clips featuring her and Chanchlani. She explained that the content originated from a professional collaboration that took place approximately four years ago.

According to the actress, she has neither spoken to nor worked with the YouTuber since that collaboration. She also questioned why outdated material was being edited into reels and shared online to create fresh narratives and attract social media engagement.

Opening her statement, Samreen described the internet as a place that could be both amusing and disappointing. She said she had woken up to find old pictures of herself being circulated through random reel edits, prompting her to clarify the situation. Her message was directed at social media users who were using the old material without considering the actual context behind it. She urged creators to stop recycling years-old photographs and clips to manufacture stories.

“The internet is truly a strange place,sometimes funny, sometimes disappointing. I woke up to random reel edits of my pictures with a YouTuber I collaborated with 4 years ago. Let me make this very clear: we haven’t spoken in four years, nor have we created any content together since then. So, please stop recycling four-year-old pictures and clips to manufacture stories and generate views,” wrote Samreen.

Samreen also addressed another aspect of the online discussion involving comments made by Chanchlani about his previous relationships during podcast appearances. She categorically denied being the woman referred to in those conversations, making her position clear through her Instagram statement.

The actress pointed out that she had clarified this misunderstanding on several occasions over the years. Despite her previous explanations, her name continued to feature in discussions surrounding something she maintained had absolutely no connection with her. Describing the situation as a misconception that had been taken too far, Samreen expressed frustration over repeatedly having to address claims that she had already denied.

“More importantly, I am NOT the girl being referred to in these podcasts. I have clarified this repeatedly over the years, yet my name continues to be dragged into something I have absolutely no connection with. This is a misconception taken to another level,” added Samreen.

Samreen warns of taking legal action over misleading posts

Beyond dismissing the speculation, Samreen criticised the manner in which certain social media creators were presenting old photographs and videos. She particularly objected to misleading edits, outdated material and statements being taken out of context to construct narratives that could damage someone’s reputation.

She termed such practices irresponsible and deeply disrespectful, emphasising that social media engagement should not come at the expense of an individual’s personal life. The actress also issued a warning to content creators who were using her name or photographs to generate clickbait. She confirmed that her team would consider legal action against those responsible for circulating such content.

Samreen further reminded social media users that misleading online narratives can have consequences beyond the digital space, affecting individuals, their reputations and their families.

“Using outdated pictures, misleading edits and taking things out of context to create a false narrative is irresponsible and deeply disrespectful. My team will be taking a legal action against creators who are using my name and/or pictures for clickbait. A little fact-checking goes a long way. Please remember that real people, their reputations and their families are involved. Not everything is content for clicks. God bless, and good day,” Samreen added further.
