Comedian Samay Raina and content creators Ranveer Allahbadia and Apoorva Mukhija had gotten embroiled in one of the biggest controversies of 2025 after their infamous India’s Got Latent episode received backlash. Now, a year after the controversy, comedian Samay Raina has released a video of his stand-up show, Samay Raina Still Alive, where he has spoken about the controversy. While narrating about the entire controversy, Samay said that Ranveer Allahbadia had said a lot of obscene things that were edited out.
What led to the uproar around that episode of India’s Got Latent was Ranveer Allahbadia’s question to a contestant about their parents’ intimacy, which many viewers found inappropriate and offensive. Addressing the backlash during the stand-up set, Samay clarified why that moment wasn’t edited out, revealing that the remark wasn’t an isolated instance.
He said, “Main tumhe maa ki kasam sach batata hoon. Uss episode main Beer Biceps ne voh sawal 8 baar poocha tha. Aur iske alawa bhi kayi ant shant sawal (rubbish) pooche the usne. Toh ab jab maine edit dekha na, maine kaha, ‘Yeh toh bohot gandi baatein kari hain isne.’ (I swear, in that episode, Beer Biceps asked that question 8 times. Other than this, he had asked lots of rubbish questions too. So when I saw the edit, I realized that he had said many obscene things.)”

He added, “Chalo ek rakh deta hoon, baaki sab hata deta hoon.’ Toh mere POV se maine toh 99 per cent kitaanu (germs) maar diye the na yaar. (I thought I should keep that question once and remove all other bits. So in my point of view, I thought I had killed 99 percent of the germs.)”
