Ranveer Allahbadia, also known as BeerBiceps, is facing backlash for his remarks on India’s Got Latent. During an episode, he allegedly asked a contestant an inappropriate question about body parts and made an indecent proposal for Rs 2 crore. The controversy escalated after he posed a shocking question about parental intimacy.
A police complaint was filed against Ranveer Allahbadia, Samay Raina, and co-judges Ashish Chanchlani, Jaspreet Singh, and Apoorva Makhija. The FIR accuses them of promoting obscene and explicit content on the show, citing multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
Ranveer Allahbadia previously apologized in a video statement, admitting his comment was inappropriate and not even funny. He acknowledged that comedy isn’t his strength and clarified that this isn’t how he wants to use his platform. Without offering any justification, he simply expressed regret for his remarks.
