SC to hear Ranveer Allahbadia’s plea today in remarks row

The Supreme Court will hear YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia’s petition today. He is requesting the consolidation of multiple cases filed against him over his controversial remarks on comedian Samay Raina’s show India’s Got Latent. Justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh are expected to review the case.

The hearing follows Allahbadia’s plea last week to merge the FIRs against him and seek anticipatory bail to avoid arrest by Guwahati Police. His lawyer, Abhinav Chandrachud, son of former Chief Justice DY Chandrachud, had requested an urgent listing of the case. However, Chief Justice Sanjiv Khanna denied the request.

Allahbadia, also known as the ‘BeerBiceps Guy,’ is facing multiple FIRs in Maharashtra, Assam, and Jaipur. Authorities have summoned him to record statements, but he has yet to respond to the investigations by Maharashtra Cyber Department, Guwahati Police, and Jaipur Police.

A major controversy erupted after Ranveer Allahbadia made inappropriate remarks about parents and sex on Samay Raina’s show India’s Got Latent. His comments led to widespread backlash and even sparked a debate in Parliament, resulting in multiple complaints against him.

Legal action was taken against other YouTubers from the show, including Samay Raina, Ashish Chanchlani, Jaspreet Singh, and Apoorva Mukhija. After YouTube removed the episode, Raina confirmed he deleted all India’s Got Latent videos from his channel. He admitted the controversy was overwhelming and promised full cooperation with authorities for a fair inquiry.

Without offering any justification, he admitted to a lapse in judgment and stated that his actions were not acceptable.
