Fadnavis warns YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia over indecent remarks on 'India's Got Latent'
Mumbai: Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis has condemned YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia for his inappropriate remarks during a recent episode of the comedy show India's Got Latent. Speaking to the media on Monday, Fadnavis emphasised that comedians and influencers should maintain boundaries in their content, urging that action be taken against those who cross them.
Fadnavis stated, "Everyone has the right to freedom of speech, but this freedom ends where it infringes upon someone else's rights. What has been said and presented is completely wrong. Our society has established certain norms, and if these are violated, it becomes a serious matter."
A complaint has already been filed in Mumbai against Allahbadia, social media influencer Apoorva Makhija, Samay, and the organisers of India's Got Latent. The complaint accuses them of promoting obscenity and using abusive language during the show.
The controversy arose after Ranveer asked a contestant an offensive question, "Would you rather watch your parents have sex for the rest of your life, or would you join in once and stop it forever?" This remark drew widespread backlash on social media, with many calling for strict action against him. Fellow panellists Apoorva and Samay have also faced criticism for not condemning the remark.
Despite the backlash, India's Got Latent remains one of the most popular comedy shows, attracting several celebrities as guests.
