Mon Feb 10 11:15:47 UTC 2025: ## YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia Faces Backlash, Police Complaint After Vulgar Remarks on Roast Show

**Mumbai, February 10, 2025** – YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, known as the “BeerBiceps Guy,” is facing intense criticism and a police complaint following vulgar remarks he made on the roast show “India’s Got Latent.” The controversy erupted after a video clip went viral showing Allahbadia posing an inappropriate question to a contestant, sparking outrage on social media and prompting legal action.

Two Mumbai lawyers, Ashish Rai and Pankaj Mishra, have filed a complaint with Mumbai Police Commissioner Vivek Phalsankar and the state women’s commission, alleging that Allahbadia and fellow comedians Samay Raina and Apoorva Makhija made objectionable comments disrespecting women. The complaint calls for an FIR against the comedians and organizers, demanding the show be shut down. The lawyers argue the remarks are harmful to children and were made solely for financial gain.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, while stating he hadn’t viewed the video, commented that anyone exceeding the bounds of decency will face consequences. He affirmed freedom of speech has limits, and those limits were crossed in this instance.

The controversial clip shows Allahbadia asking a contestant to choose between witnessing their parents having daily sex for life or participating once and stopping. The complaint highlights this and other remarks as vulgar and contributing to the normalization of perverse behavior.

Prominent figures have joined the condemnation. Journalist and lyricist Neelesh Misra criticized the show’s creators for their lack of responsibility and the audience for normalizing such behavior. Congress leader Supriya Shrinate echoed these concerns, expressing alarm at the applause the comments received.

Allahbadia has since issued an apology on X (formerly Twitter), stating his comment was inappropriate and not funny, admitting comedy is not his strength. However, the apology hasn’t quelled the storm of criticism surrounding the incident and the ongoing investigation.
