Ranveer Allahbadia gives shoutout to Samay Raina after IGL row, says 'Picture abhi baaki hai'
Mumbai: YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, known widely as BeerBiceps, voiced strong support for comedian Samay Raina, who was at the centre of the India's Got Latent (IGL) storm.
In a recent Instagram 'Ask Me Anything' session, Ranveer opened up about the fallout of the controversy and how it has reshaped his relationships and personal outlook. When asked by a netizen whether he was still in touch with Samay, Ranveer responded that their bond has strengthened after the events: "Samay will be back. All of us have gotten closer after the events. Stand by each other in good times as well as in bad times. My brother is (already) a media legend."
He also extended love to fellow creators Ashish Chanchlani and Apoorva Mukhija, writing: "God is watching over all of us. Just wanna say, love you @ashishchanchlani & @the.rebel.kid as well. Picture abhi baaki hai..."
Reflecting on the emotional and professional challenges he faced over the past two months, Ranveer revealed the toll the controversy took on him and his team. "That I let down the families of my team members because of my mistake," he said, when asked about his biggest fear during the ordeal.
“People don't understand how many jobs were at stake. Quickly wrote off my career and hence the careers of 300+ people. Learnt very deeply about human nature. Mobs love seeing people fall. But we will keep moving forward. I'm not 100% okay even now. Have to give it my all because MANY livelihoods depend on my work. Stay humble, stay hungry,” he added.
Ranveer further shared what he lost during the difficult time: "Lost health, money, opportunity, repute, mental health, peace, parents' contentment and much more." But he added that he also gained transformation, spiritual growth, and toughness.
Meanwhile, Ranveer, Samay, and Apoorva appeared before the Maharashtra cyber cell for the third time on April 15 to record their statements in the India's Got Latent case.

Vartha Bharati–Sankalp predictions align closely with Karnataka bypoll results
Bengaluru: The Vartha Bharati–Sankalp election analysis has shown a high level of accuracy in predicting the outcome of the recent Karnataka Assembly by-elections held in May 2026, correctly calling winners in both constituencies and closely estimating vote share trends.
The by-elections were held in Bagalkot and Davanagere South, drawing significant political attention as both seats were seen as key tests for the ruling Congress and opposition BJP.
According to the analysis, Vartha Bharati–Sankalp had made three major projections ahead of the results the winning party, vote share percentages, and margin of victory.
In both constituencies, the platform accurately predicted that the Congress would emerge victorious. The outcome matched the projections, with Congress candidates winning in Bagalkot and Davanagere South.
In terms of vote share, the predictions were largely in line with the final results. In Bagalkot, the BJP’s vote share was forecast in the range of 40 to 46 per cent, while the actual figure stood at 42.9 per cent. The Congress vote share, however, exceeded expectations, with the party securing 55.4 per cent against a projected range of 43 to 48 per cent.
The margin of victory in Bagalkot turned out to be significantly higher than anticipated. While the projection had placed the margin between 2,000 and 3,500 votes, the final margin was around 22,332 votes.
In Davanagere South, the predictions also remained largely accurate. The Congress vote share was projected between 43 and 51 per cent, and the final figure stood at 43.9 per cent. The BJP was expected to secure between 42 and 50 per cent but ended with 40.3 per cent.
The analysis had also identified the role of SDPI as a potential spoiler in the constituency. While its vote share was estimated around 6 per cent, the party eventually secured around 12 per cent of the vote.
The margin of victory in Davanagere South was predicted to be between 1,500 and 2,600 votes. The actual margin was higher at around 5,708 votes, though the contest remained relatively close as anticipated.
Overall, the performance of Vartha Bharati–Sankalp stood out for correctly identifying the winning parties in both seats and maintaining close accuracy in vote share estimates, with only limited deviations in specific cases.
