After the India vs South Africa match, she posted a short reel showing her interaction with David Miller. In the caption, she wrote, “David Miller! What a player.” Inside the video, the text said, “I thought we were friends, David.”

The reel that turned into hate

Princy later shared that the video led to disturbing messages. She said she received rape threats and many body-shaming comments. The pressure became overwhelming for her.

She decided to delete the reel from her Facebook account because it was too much to handle.

On Instagram, she wrote:

“Deleted my reel with David Miller from Facebook because I absolutely couldn't bear so many graphic and disturbing rape threats and hundreds of comments body shaming me. I feel like disappearing right now.”

Princy did not stay silent. She said she plans to file a police complaint against the people who sent abusive messages.

On Instagram, she wrote:

“I am going to file a police complaint on all of these people and others that I have blocked. I will put all their usernames with their messages on a story for people and their employers to know what kind of potential criminals they are surrounded by. Nobody deserves this.”
