YouTuber and influencer Ranveer Allahbadiapopularly known as BeerBiceps, is once again under scrutiny, this time for allegedly failing to cooperate with the Maharashtra Cyber Cell in connection with the ongoing investigation into the controversial show India’s Got Latent.
According to India TV, the Cyber Cell had issued summons to Ranveer, fellow creators Samay Raina, Ashish Chanchlaniand Apoorva Mukhija for questioning. While Samay and Ashish complied and appeared for the probe, Ranveer and Apoorva reportedly failed to respond, prompting the authorities to consider legal action for non-cooperation.
Apoorva Mukhija opens up about trauma
Amid the backlash, Apoorva Mukhija recently spoke publicly for the first time, revealing the emotional toll the controversy took on her. She shared that she received rape and death threats and suffered from sleep paralysis due to fear and stress. “Every time I woke up, there was some new news. I’m glad I had good friends around to support me,” she said.
Ranveer Attempts Redemption
In a recent video titled “Dear India,” Ranveer addressed the issue, promising to raise the quality of his podcasts. “We will improve and focus on India’s rich history and personal growth topics,” he said, asking for “another chance.” However, with legal action looming, Ranveer’s comeback may face further hurdles.
What was the issue?
The controversy erupted after an episode of India’s Got Latent went viral for the wrong reasons. In the now-infamous clip, Ranveer asked a contestant a shockingly vulgar question:
“Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once to make it stop forever?”
While other panelists, including Ashish and Apoorva, were seen laughing off the comment, the public response was swift and unforgiving. Multiple FIRs were filed across the country. The National Commission for Women (NCW) condemned the video, and the Supreme Court later stepped in, calling Ranveer’s remarks “vulgar” and symptomatic of a “dirty mind.” He was granted interim protection from arrest but was ordered to submit a written apology.
