**MUMBAI, INDIA** – Comedian Samay Raina’s show, “India’s Got Latent,” is once again embroiled in controversy following a question posed by guest Ranveer Allahbadia, host of the popular YouTube channel BeerBiceps. The episode, featuring YouTubers Ashish Chanchlani and Aaprv Mukhija alongside Allahbadia, saw the latter ask a contestant a deeply personal and inappropriate question regarding their parents’ intimacy.
Allahbadia’s question, which inquired whether the contestant would prefer to witness their parents’ intimacy daily throughout their lives or join them once, has sparked widespread outrage on social media. Raina himself reacted on the show, dismissing the question as a rejected query from Allahbadia’s podcast.
The backlash has been swift and severe. Numerous creators have released critical videos on YouTube, while X (formerly Twitter) users have flooded the platform with criticism. Comments range from accusations of shamelessness and a decline in comedic standards to calls for a boycott of Allahbadia and his podcast. Many users lamented the loss of the clean humor of past comedians like Jaspal Bhatti, Johnny Lever, and Raju Srivastava.
One user commented, “This question should be asked to your father, or tell your partner to ask her father. You should be ashamed. You’ve lost whatever respect we had for you. I thought the person I subscribed to was good, but you turned out to be bad.” Another criticized the current state of comedy, stating, “Comedy these days has fallen to insults, obscenity, and mockery. The humor of Jaspal Bhatti, Johnny Lever, and Raju Srivastava is missing.”
Allahbadia’s controversial question has reignited the debate surrounding boundaries in comedy and the responsibility of public figures on social media. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the potential consequences of insensitive questioning, even in a comedic context.
