Sharing his concerns on social media platform X, Bhat criticised PhysicsWallah for promoting entertainment over educational content. He called into question the institute's commitment to decency and demanded accountability for what he deemed an unacceptable breach of standards.

Aaqib Bhat, a student and activist from Kashmir, lodged a formal complaint against the Srinagar branch of PhysicsWallah, a renowned online education platform, accusing it of broadcasting inappropriate content during a class session.

The video, a mashup of the song 'Ik Vaari Aa' from the Bollywood film Raabta, allegedly featured intimate scenes between actors Sushant Singh Rajput and Kriti Sanon. Bhat argued that such material is unsuitable for educational settings, particularly in conservative regions like Kashmir.
