MUMBAI: After the most recent episode of ‘India’s Got Latent’, Ranveer Allahbadia and Samay Raina have found themselves embroiled in controversy, following a question posed by Ranveer that sparked widespread outrage. The incident has escalated to the extent that multiple FIRs have reportedly been filed against both Ranveer and Samay.
Since its debut, ‘India’s Got Latent’ has remained a hot topic of conversation, largely due to its edgy and often provocative humour. While fans of dark comedy have embraced the show, it has not been without its critics. Despite the polarising opinions, the show promised an exciting moment for viewers when Ranveer Allahbadia, the pioneer of YouTube podcasting in India, made a guest appearance. However, what was expected to be an intriguing crossover quickly turned into an unexpected fiasco.
During the episode, Ranveer posed a deeply inappropriate and unsettling question to a contestant: ‘Would you rather join your parents once and never have sex again, or watch them have sex for the rest of your life?’ This shocking moment left the audience stunned, as it starkly contrasted with the composed and insightful persona Ranveer cultivates on his podcast.
The backlash was swift and severe. Fans and critics alike condemned the question, calling it distasteful and offensive. Many expressed their disappointment in Ranveer, with some feeling betrayed by the stark departure from his usual brand of content. Meanwhile, Samay Raina, whose show has always danced on the edge of controversy, also found himself under scrutiny, with some arguing that he encouraged or at least enabled the incident.
As legal troubles mount and the debate rages on, it remains to be seen how this controversy will impact both Ranveer’s reputation and ‘India’s Got Latent’ as a whole. Will they weather the storm, or has the line between daring and distasteful finally been crossed beyond repair?
TellyChakkar has been actively reporting with not just the updates about the controversy but also about what celebrities and other personalities think about it. Now, Aalisha Panwar, a popular actress from the TV industry has come forward to give her opinion on the controversy.
Aalisha Panwar said, “When we are public figures, we always have one responsibility. We should always think about what we are saying because many people follow us blindly. And comments like this, what impact do they leave on our society. I mean the new generation, the young people, un logo ko kya sikha rahe hai kya bata rahe hai. It’s very embarrassing to even hear it, we can’t listen to those words in front of our parents or not even in front of our siblings. So yes that was something that shouldn’t have happened. If you are a comedian, there is different type of comedy that people do. Vulgarity is different and they should have at least tried to keep it apart, it was not necessary and very much uncalled for, uske dusre episodes bhi maine dekhe hai. It’s a bold show. Iss tarah hai shows aur kaafi bane hai pehle chahe Roadies ho gaya, Splitsvilla ho gaya, lekin maine kabhi iss tarah ki baatein aur kisi bhi show mein nahi suni. This was something totally uncensored. Mujhe ab tak nahi samajh mein aa raha ki kaise unhone woh bola, kaise aaya sab ne suna hai, I mean it is very embarrassing and definitely yeh ek bohot sahi cheez hui hai ke agar woh episode hata diya gaya hai. I think kaafi episodes hata diye gaye hai because kaafi episodes mein iss tarah ki baatein hui thi. But this crossed everyone’s limit that’s why sab ki nazar mein yeh cheez aayi.”
Ranveer Allahbadia has recently shared a post on social media, saying that he will co-operate with the police.
