The Samay Raina-Ranveer Allahbadia controversy on India’s Got Latent was a big topic of discussion for the past two weeks. On the show, Ranveer made a ‘sex with parents’ joke, which received a lot of criticism online. FIRs were filed against the comedian and the YouTuber for the jokes on the show. The Supreme Court has banned the show and asked Samay to delete all the episodes of IGL until further notice.
Amid all this, Samay Raina did his first stand-up show in Canada. During his live performance, the comedian got quite emotional while joking about the controversy. A fan named Shubham Dutta, who attended Samay’s show, shared what Raina said during his act and also mentioned Ranveer Allahbadia, aka BeerBiceps.
Shubham Dutta wrote, “For the first time, I saw a 25-year-old guy, weighed down by immense mental pressure, dark circles under his eyes, a sunken face, and unkempt hair, walk onto the stage in a dust-covered black hoodie. His first words into the mic? ‘Thanks for paying my lawyer’s fees.’. For the first time, I saw about seven hundred so-called ‘degenerate’ generation of today cheering for him, while he stood there, tears in his eyes, just before starting his set.”
Shubham shared how Samay Raina got emotional while joking about the controversy. According to Dutta, the India’s Got Talent comedian said, “Iss show pe bahut mauka ayega, jahan aapko lag sakta hai ki main bahot funny kuch bol sakta hoon, par tab Beerbiceps ko yaad kar lena bhai (There will be many moments in this show where you might think I could say something really funny, but in those moments, just remember BeerBiceps, brother).”
Samay concluded his live performance in Canada by saying, “Shayad samay kharab chal raha hai mera, par yaad rakhna doston, main samay hoon (Maybe my time is bad right now, but remember, my friends: I am the time).”
Meanwhile, the Supreme Court slammed Ranveer Allahbadia for his remarks but gave him relief from being arrested over his jokes. However, his passport is being collected and he would not be allowed to leave the country without permission.
