Elvish Yadav and Natasa Stankovic, two prominent figures in the Indian entertainment scene, recently took everyone by surprise when they appeared together in a reel promoting Natasa’s new song, Tere Krke. The reel, which has now surpassed 62 million views on Instagram, features the duo romantically walking along a beach, exchanging affectionate glances. It was meant to highlight Natasa’s latest song, but it stirred up more than just excitement about the music.
Interestingly, the reel dropped on the same day as cricketer Hardik Pandya’s birthday. As Natasa is married to Hardik, some of his fans didn’t take kindly to the collaboration, and they began trolling Elvish and Natasa online. The situation escalated when Natasa was spotted with Elvish at the Mumbai airport, fueling rumours and sending the internet into a frenzy.
In response to the online backlash, Elvish Yadav broke his silence by retweeting a post that criticized the trolling. The post called out the unnecessary negativity and labelled the reaction as a prime example of the toxic side of social media, where logic and decency are often ignored.
Despite the drama, the reel continues to gain massive traction, showing how easily viral content can spark both admiration and controversy in the digital age.
Nataša Stanković features in promo shoots with YouTuber Elvish Yadav for a music video, and Hardik Pandya's fans start attacking both with abuse. This is a perfect example of how social media trolling lacks logic, moral decency, and frankly, basic literacy. If this isn’t…

Here, have a look at their viral reel
Elvish and Natasa shared the reel with a caption that read,
“Vibin’ On A Whole New Level “
Elvish playfully addressed the situation with a tweet of his own, writing,
“Aur free me itna PR bhi karwa dete hai”
In essence, his statement emphasised how the unwarranted attention served to better promote the music.
Hardik Pandya posted his bday picture to Instagram that same day.
When Natasa Stankovic shared her reel with Elvish Yadav on the same day, Hardik Pandya celebrated his birthday with poignant thoughts. He shared photos from his festivities along with a reflection about his development as a person and the lessons he had learnt in the previous year.
“It’s been a year full of highs and lows. Birthdays are a time to reflect while also looking forward with positivity and ambition,” he wrote. Expressing gratitude for the blessings and lessons from his mistakes, Hardik added, “I’m moving into this new year with renewed motivation and a lot of love.”
