Background of the Controversy
During an episode of Samay Raina’s India’s Got Latent, panellists Ranveer Allahbadia, Apoorva, and Ashish Chanchlani sparked controversy. Ranveer’s comment about parents causes widespread outrage on social media, while Apoorva was also accused of making an objectionable remark. The backlash resulted in multiple FIRs being filed against Apoorva, Ranveer, Samay, and the show’s producers. As the controversy unfolded, Apoorva temporarily stepped away from social media.
