On Tuesday, the couple shared a video on their channel in which they apologized to everyone. This is in connection with one of their vlogs in which they created a prank while climbing the steps of Tirumala.
The controversy arose after Priyanka and Shiv Kumar shared a prank video during their visit to Tirumala. The video, which showed them pretending to be chased by a leopard on the Alipiri steps, was edited with animation and music.
