Ranveer Allahbadia was slammed for making a crass comment during his recent appearance at a show. At Samay Raina’s YouTube reality show India’s Got Latent, Ranveer asked a contestant, “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once and stop it forever?”
In an apology video that was posted on X, Allahbadia admitted that his comment wasn’t just inappropriate, but unfunny too. “Comedy is not my forte. Just here to say sorry,” the YouTuber said in the video.
Chief Minister Fadnavis too had admitted that people should be cautious in understanding the limits of freedom of speech.
“Everyone has the freedom of speech but our freedom ends when we encroach upon the freedom of others… In our society, we have made some rules, it is absolutely wrong if someone violates them. Action should be taken against them,” he said.
