By: Tupaki Desk | 10 Feb 2025 10:23 AMRanveer Allahbadia, the popular YouTuber and podcast host known as BeerBiceps, is currently embroiled in controversy following his appearance on Samay Raina's show, India's Got Latent. Allahbadia's attempt to match the show's tone of dark humor has backfired, resulting in widespread criticism and even legal action. A First Information Report (FIR) has been filed against him and others involved with the show, alleging the use of abusive language and promoting obscenity.
The controversy stems from a distasteful joke Allahbadia made during the show, posing an inappropriate question to a contestant about their parents' intimacy.

Journalist Neelesh Misra, among others, condemned the show's content and its creators for lacking responsibility and promoting indecency.
The backlash against Allahbadia and India's Got Latent has extended beyond social media, with calls for stricter regulation of online shows that bypass traditional censorship. Critics argue that the show's content crosses ethical boundaries in the pursuit of viral content and necessitates stronger oversight56. This isn't the first time India's Got Latent has faced controversy, as a previous complaint was filed regarding a joke about dog meat.
As the controversy unfolds, questions are being raised about the limits of humor and responsibility in the digital age. While Allahbadia and the show's producers have yet to issue a statement, the incident underscores the growing scrutiny of online content and the potential consequences for creators who push the boundaries of acceptable behavior.
