AICWA Demands Ban on ‘India’s Got Latent’ Following Ranveer Allahbadia’s Comments

Published

on

The All India Cine Workers Association (AICWA) has expressed its strong disapproval of a recent episode of the YouTube series “India’s Got Latent,” hosted by comedian Samay Raina, due to an inappropriate comment made by YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia, known as BeerBiceps. In an official statement, AICWA demanded an immediate ban on the show and legal action against all parties involved.

The issue arose when Allahbadia made a distasteful joke during his appearance, which quickly garnered significant backlash and went viral. His commentary included a provocative question directed at a contestant: “Would you rather watch your parents… or join in once and stop it forever?” This remark was deemed highly inappropriate and sparked outrage among both the artistic community and social media users, prompting AICWA’s response.

AICWA criticized Allahbadia’s statements as offensive and harmful to “societal and family values.” They labeled the content of the episode as “abhorrent and vile,” calling it a threat to the moral fabric of society. Additionally, the association called on the Indian film industry to boycott “India’s Got Latent,” urging a complete dissociation from both host Samay Raina and guest Ranveer Allahbadia, recommending that no future collaborations occur with them.

The organization also called for the swift removal of the controversial episode and emphasized the need for stricter regulations surrounding digital content to prevent similar incidents in the future.

In response to the escalating backlash, Allahbadia issued a public apology. In a video shared on his social media account X, he expressed remorse for his inappropriate joke, admitting it was “not funny” and acknowledging his lapse in judgment regarding comedic standards.

“I just want to apologize. My comment wasn’t just inappropriate; it wasn’t even funny. Comedy isn’t my strong suit, and I accept full responsibility for my poor judgment. It wasn’t cool of me,” Allahbadia stated.

He further explained that he would not delve into justifications for the remark, focusing instead on his apology. In addition to his statement, he requested that the creators of “India’s Got Latent” remove the offending sections from the episode. “I have asked the producers to edit out the insensitive parts from the video. In closing, I just want to say I’m sorry, and I hope you can forgive me,” he added.
