Ranveer Allahbadia on What He Lost in ‘India’s Got Latent’ Row

YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia shared that the ‘India’s Got Latent’ controversy had a significant emotional, financial, and professional impact on him. He also mentioned that the incident left his parents feeling “disappointed” and was a letdown for his team.

“Lost: Health, money, opportunity, repute, mental health, peace, parents’ contentment & much more. Gained: Transformation, spiritual growth, toughness. Will slowly work towards getting back everything that’s lost. Let the work speak,” the influencer wrote on his Instagram Story while replying to his follower.

When a follower asked Allahbadia what was his most fearful thought in the last two months, he replied,””That I let down the families of my team members because of my mistake. People don’t understand how many jobs are at stake. Quickly wrote off my career and hence the careers of 300+ people. Learnt very deeply about human nature.”

He added, “People enjoy watching others fall, but we’ll keep pushing ahead. I’m still not completely okay, but I have to give it everything I’ve got because a lot of livelihoods rely on what I do.”

‘India’s Got Latent’ controversy

‘India’s Got Latent’, a YouTube comedy show hosted by stand-up comedian Samay Raina, faced major backlash after Ranveer Allahbadia made a controversial remark during one of the episodes.

His comment, which involved a contestant’s parents, quickly spread across social media and drew heavy criticism.

In response, Allahbadia issued a public apology, admitting that his remark was not only inappropriate but also failed to be humorous.

“My comment wasn’t just wrong, it wasn’t even funny. Comedy isn’t my strength — I’m simply here to apologize,” he said.

On Tuesday, Allahbadia and Samay Raina appeared before Maharashtra Cyber office in Mumbai and recorded their statements in connection with the case filed against them for allegedly promoting obscenity and vulgar content on the YouTube show.
