Now, Arshdeep has allegedly been seen racially abusing his fellow T20 World Cup-winner and Mumbai Indians batter Tilak Varma. The video has gone viral on the internet.
After the BCCI asked teams to refrain from the "vlogging" culture, the Punjab Kings had asked Arshdeep to cut down on his filming and posting. In another incident, Arshdeep had allegedly gotten into a verbal altercation with PBKS skipper Shreyas Iyer at the airport.
In yet another viral video, Arshdeep Singh was seen with his girlfriend, Samreen Kaur, in the team bus. The BCCI had prevented all players from fraternizing with "unauthorised" persons in official team areas like hotels and team buses.
The Arshdeep Singh and Tilak Varma incident
The video appears to have been filmed in the lobby area of a hotel. Both the Punjab Kings and Mumbai Indians are currently in Dharamsala for their upcoming IPL 2026 match on Thursday.
In the video, Arshdeep can be heard saying, "Oye Tilak, Andhere. Aaj sunscreen nahi lagaya kya?", which translates to 'Hey Tilak, darkness, did you not apply sunscreen today?'

Tilak Varma originally hails from Hyderabad in South India. Over the years, there have been many stereotypes about South Indian people having darker skin shades and being called names for it.
The two have shared a dressing room while playing together for India many times, including when India won the T20 World Cup in 2026.
In the short term, the incident may be unlikely to cause any bad blood between the two, at least based on Varma's reaction.
PBKS and MI's next match
The two teams have already met once in IPL 2026 before. At the Wankhede Stadium, Quinton de Kock's century had gone in vain in the face of Prabhsimran Singh's unbeaten 80.
Apart from settling the score, MI also have an opportunity to derail Punjab Kings' push to the playoffs.
