YouTubers Samay Raina, Ranveer Allahbadia, and Apoorva Mukhija have been in the spotlight recently due to the controversy surrounding India's Got Latent. A comment made by Ranveer Allahbadia regarding parents on the show sparked a major backlash, leading to legal trouble for all three content creators. As a result, Samay Raina removed all episodes of the show from YouTube, while Ranveer Allahbadia faced severe criticism. However, in a recent development, the Supreme Court has granted Ranveer Allahbadia permission to resume his podcast—under specific conditions.
Ashish Chanchlani’s Reaction
Popular YouTuber Ashish Chanchlani, who was also involved in India's Got Latent, found himself in the middle of the controversy. In response, he shared an emotional video on Instagram, urging fans to pray for his family. In the video, he expressed his concern, saying:
"Hello friends, how are you all? I have read your messages, and everything will be fine. I wanted to share my thoughts but don’t know what to say. We will fight through this difficult time. We have faced worse and will learn from this too."
Supreme Court’s Decision: A Big Relief for Ranveer Allahbadia
The Supreme Court has ruled in favor of Ranveer Allahbadia, allowing him to restart his podcast under the condition that he maintains civility and moral decorum in his content. Additionally, the court has ordered him to appear before the Guwahati Jant in connection with the case.
Ranveer Allahbadia had filed an appeal in the Supreme Court, arguing that his podcast, The Ranveer Show, is his primary source of income and supports 280 employees. Acknowledging the impact on his livelihood, the court permitted him to continue the show but set a crucial guideline:
"The content of the show should be suitable for viewers of all age groups."
The court has also directed Ranveer Allahbadia to submit an affidavit ensuring compliance with these conditions.
