Elvish Yadav Tweet Controversy: Popular YouTuber and Bigg Boss OTT winner Elvish Yadav found himself at the center of a storm after a tweet from his account promoted the highly sensitive India vs Pakistan match in the World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2025. The tweet came at a time when many citizens and political voices are opposing any kind of sporting engagement with Pakistan post recent geopolitical tensions.
The controversy deepened as fans alleged the post was part of a paid influencer campaign, sparking outrage across social media platforms.
Elvish Yadav Tweet Controversy on India vs Pakistan WCL 2025
On July 19, 2025, a tweet from Elvish Yadav’s official Twitter handle described the India Champions vs Pakistan Champions match as a historic moment, calling for Team India’s dominance and predicting soaring TRPs. The tweet read:
“India vs Pakistan tomorrow at @wclleague — the first face-off since the war. Bilateral series? Not happening. This is an international tournament — and here too, it’s going to be Bharat all the way… And the cup? It’s coming home.”
He tagged cricket legends like Yuvraj Singh, Harbhajan Singh, Suresh Raina, Irfan Pathan, Robin Uthappa, and Yusuf Pathan — all participating in WCL 2025.
While fans of Elvish saw it as cricket enthusiasm, many others viewed it as opportunistic and anti-national.
Public Outrage and Nationalism Debate
The tweet quickly went viral, not for the right reasons. Across social media platforms, users questioned Elvish Yadav’s nationalistic values, accusing him of promoting a match against Pakistan for monetary gain.
This came at a time when both Left-leaning and Right-leaning groups were unified in their objection to any Indo-Pak sporting ties, especially after recent conflicts.
“Elvish Yadav’s nationalism changes with money,” said a viral post criticizing him.
Allegations of Paid Promotion
Insider reports suggest several influencers were approached for paid tweets to promote the WCL 2025 India vs Pakistan match. Some refused. But Elvish’s tweet seemed to align with this marketing campaign — leading to further criticism.
Fans expressed disappointment, stating that influencers should not compromise national sentiments for brand deals or sports promotions.
Official Statement from Elvish Yadav’s Team
To control the damage, Elvish Yadav’s team released an official statement denying that the tweet was authored by Elvish himself.
Official Statement
“The official statement from Elvish Yadav’s team wishes to inform you that the post made on Elvish Yadav’s official Twitter account regarding the India vs Pakistan match last night was not done by him.
The post was made by Ashish Gupta, who is Elvish’s manager-cum-cameraman, as he also had access to the account.
We apologize for the inappropriate post. Effective immediately, Ashish has been relieved of his position as manager.
Thank you,
Elvish Yadav’s Team”
This clarification, however, has received mixed responses. While some fans accepted the explanation, others viewed it as a damage-control move.
Social Media Reactions
The controversy has ignited thousands of tweets, memes, and debates online. Here’s what people are saying:
“Firing the manager doesn’t change what was tweeted. This is not just about cricket, it’s about patriotism.”
“If it was really not him, why was the tweet live for so long?”
“Appreciate Elvish for taking action. But influencers must stay cautious with public platforms.”
