This isn’t creative. It’s pervert.
And we can’t normalise perverse behaviour as cool.
The fact that this sick comment met loud applause must worry us all. https://t.co/tZQNnZuIhF— Supriya Shrinate (@SupriyaShrinate) February 9, 2025
Other netizens also criticized the crude joke made by the YouTuber, a user wrote to Information and Broadcasting Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw, requesting her to take actions against them.
Ranveer Allahbadia in India’s got Latent
Another user wrote that actors like Amitabh Bachchan should feel ashamed for bringing such people on his famous show “Kaun Banega Crorepati” as Samay Raina, Bhuvan Bam along with Tanmay Bhatt and Kamiya Jani appeared on the show very recently.
A user posted-
Fame & money expose a person’s true character.#RanveerAllahbadia didn’t ‘accidentally’ cross the line.. he knowingly participated in filth for clout.
‘If you don’t like it, don’t watch’ is NOT an excuse for normalising filth. If it’s online, it’s open to everyone. #samayraina pic.twitter.com/dzT0XhI1YF— Ajay Gupta (@ajayguptaca) February 9, 2025
However, amidst the controversy and outrage, Mr. Allahbadia hasn't said anything so far regarding the criticism and controversy.
Impact Of The Controversy
Ranveer Allahbadia’s podcast has created a very decent, wise image of him which is being questioned by the users now. Internet users are slamming him for making such a joke while he talks about spirituality, meditation in his podcasts. At the National Creators Award, Mr. Allahbadia was also awarded with the “Disruptor of The Year” title by our Prime Minister. Hence, the followers and users are disappointed with the joke he made on Samay Raina’s show.
The Line Between Offence and Humour
The controversy has sparked an outrage over the internet regarding the difference between offence and humour. Questioning whether only dark and vulgar humour gains attention. Instances of demeaning, objectifying during comedy are increasing, which turns out to be offensive against people, culture or community.
India’s Got Latent, the show created by Samay Raina was also in controversy a few weeks back when a contestant “Jessy Nabam” commented about Arunachal Pradesh people eating dogs, which landed Samay Raina’s show and the contestant in Legal troubles.
