Fri Feb 21 02:46:12 UTC 2025: ## Comedian Harsh Gujral Deletes YouTube Show Amidst ‘India’s Got Latent’ Controversy
**Mumbai, India** – The controversy surrounding Ranveer Allahbadia’s comments on the now-defunct YouTube show “India’s Got Latent” continues to ripple through the comedy community. Following the removal of all episodes of Samay Raina’s “India’s Got Latent” from YouTube, comedian Harsh Gujral has taken down all episodes of his show, “The Escape Room.”
Gujral’s show, which premiered in December 2024, featured a confession box segment where participants anonymously shared personal stories. The show’s description advertised “darkest and funniest confessions” with a comedic spin. Only two episodes aired before their removal from YouTube. Additionally, Gujral has made his Instagram account private. He has yet to publicly comment on the deletion of his show’s content.
The initial controversy stemmed from comments made by Allahbadia on “India’s Got Latent,” which also featured several other prominent content creators. The episode, which has since been deleted, sparked widespread outrage and prompted multiple complaints, leading to a police investigation and the removal of all episodes from YouTube. Both Raina and Allahbadia have issued public apologies. The fallout from the controversy underscores the potential consequences of controversial content on online platforms.
