Podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, known for his channel BeerBiceps, was on a recent episode of Samay Raina’s show, India’s Got Latent. His jokes didn’t sit well with many viewers. They called him out for making inappropriate and offensive remarks, leading some to say that there should be rules for online shows like Latent that stream on YouTube.
In the show, contestants showcase their talent while the judges, including Samay Raina and famous guests, score them. If the contestants can correctly guess their scores, they win a prize. The show is praised by some for its dark humor and relaxed style, but it has also faced criticism.
In one episode, Ranveer made a shocking joke about a contestant’s parents that upset many people. He asked, “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day or join them to finish it once and for all?” While some on the show laughed, viewers were not pleased, with one person tweeting, “What do I do to unhear that horrible Ranveer Allahbadia clip?”
Many people on the internet want Ranveer to be canceled for his comments. Some referenced his award for being a disruptor from India’s Prime Minister and wondered if that award would still stand after his offensive jokes.
Another comment that upset people was about Kerala’s literacy, where one twitter user pointed out that Ranveer’s misleading videos have been fact-checked by educated people from Kerala.
Social media users are calling for the authorities to monitor shows like India’s Got Latent more closely to avoid vulgar content. This isn’t the first time India’s Got Latent has been in trouble; earlier, a complaint was filed over a joke about dog meat.
