Ranveer Allahbadia has been receiving huge backlash on social media due to his comments about ‘watching parents have sex’ on Samay Raina’s show India’s Got Latent. Even though the YouTuber has apologised publicly, the controversy around him is not ending. Popular Punjabi singer B Praak has also called out Ranveer for his comments and revealed that he has cancelled his appearance on his podcast.
B Praak also urged the stand up comedians to save Indian culture and not to make such jokes. Sharing the video, he wrote, “My Humble Humble Request To All The Standup Comedians Please Save Our Indian Culture And Respect.”
He said in the video, “Radhe Radhe, doston! Kaise ho aap sab? Main na yaar, ek podcast mein jaane wala tha abhi, jo Beer Biceps ka tha, par humne cancel kar diya. Kyun? Kyunki aapko pata hai ki waha kaisi pathetic thinking hai aur kaise shabd use kiye ja rahe hain? Samay Raina ke show pe jo ho raha hai, yeh hamara Indian culture nahi hai. Yeh bilkul bhi hamara culture nahi hai.”
Questioning Ranveer’s objectional remarks, he added, “Aap apne parents ki kaunsi stories bata rahe ho? Aap unki kaunsi baatein kar rahe ho? Kis tareeke se baatein kar rahe ho? Yeh comedy hai? This is not at all comedy! Yeh stand-up comedy toh bilkul bhi nahi hai. Logon ko gaaliyan dena, logon ko gaaliyan sikhana—yeh kaunsi generation hai? Mujhe samajh nahi aa raha ki yeh generation kaunsi hai.”
A complaint has reportedly been filed on Monday against Ranveer, Apoorva Makhija and Samay Raina and the organisers of India’s Got Latent. The complaint has been filed with the Mumbai Commissioner and Maharashtra Women’s Commission for allegedly using abusive language on the show and strict action has been demanded against the accused in the letter.
