On Sunday, a comedian named Pranit More was reportedly attacked by a group of 11-12 men after he performed at 24K Kraft Brewzz in Solapur, Maharashtra. The assailants identified themselves as fans of budding actor Veer Pahariya and took offense to More’s jokes about him. Pahariya, the grandson of former Maharashtra Chief Minister Sushilkumar Shinde, recently made his acting debut in ‘Sky Force.’More’s team posted on social media that the group assaulted him viciously, throwing punches and kicks that left him severely injured.

The post further elaborated, “The leader of the attack was Tanveer Shaikh, who made their intentions clear: they wanted to punish Pranit for his jokes about Veer Pahariya. One of the attackers even issued a chilling warning, stating, ‘Agli Baar Veer Pahariya baba pe joke maarke dikha! (Next time, try making a joke on Veer Pahariya)’—a direct threat suggesting that more severe repercussions would follow if he dared to joke about the actor again.”

Pranit’s team also pointed out that the venue, 24K Kraft Brewzz, lacked adequate security. They requested access to security camera footage but were denied by the management. Although they attempted to contact the police, no assistance arrived at the scene.

Following this incident, Solapur police summoned Pranit More to provide his statement, but he did not attend, according to an official report on Wednesday. Consequently, the police registered a case based on a complaint from the restaurant owner where More had performed.

In a response, Veer Pahariya took to his Instagram stories to denounce the attack on Pranit. He expressed his shock and sadness, stating, “I want to make it absolutely clear—I had no involvement in this, and I strongly condemn any form of violence. I have always taken trolling in stride, laughed along with it, and shown love even to my critics. I would never encourage or support harm towards anyone, especially someone from the same creative community.” He concluded by offering his support, saying, “I’m truly sorry this happened to you, and I will do everything in my power to ensure those responsible are held accountable. Sending you strength.”
