Ranveer Allahbadia, a popular YouTuber and content creator, has faced significant backlash after making a controversial joke about parents on Samay Raina’s show India’s Got Latent. The joke, which many viewers found offensive, sparked a wave of criticism on social media.
In response, Ranveer issued a public apology, acknowledging that his comments were inappropriate. In a video posted online, he explained, “Comedy is not even my forte, and I understand that what I said wasn’t appropriate. I am here only to say sorry.”
You’re not a child. This wasn’t just a “lapse of judgment.” You’re an adult who consciously said it. Don’t brush it off as a mistake or claim comedy isn’t your forte. If you truly felt it was wrong, you would have immediately retracted the video instead of publishing it.

Kamal R Khan has showed huge angst against the same, saying that an F.I.R should be filed separately from his behalf. Shraddha Kapoor’s brother Siddharth was also seen writing “Chal Nikal” in the comment, a phrase implying that Ranveer should leave the situation and stop defending his actions.
I want @MumbaiPolice to file a FIR from my side against these people. I am sure, there is a law available to stop such a porn. If police can arrest Raj Kundra, so why not these people? pic.twitter.com/assgh8Lp8l

Agar maa-baap ke liye aise words nikal rahe hai toh sorry bro, you failed.
Just remove all those spirituality videos as well.
No respect for you. 📉
This comment further fueled the ongoing controversy. Despite his apology, many netizens have continued to express their displeasure, stating that they do not accept his apology. The backlash has been intense, with many people criticizing him for trivializing a sensitive topic. Some have gone as far as to say that his apology is insincere and only a response to the public outrage.
