YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, also known as BeerBiceps, revealed that he did not charge any fee for appearing on Samay Raina’s show, ‘India’s Got Latent’. He stated that he attended the show as a friendly collaboration, which is common among YouTubers.
Summoned by Maharashtra Cyber
Allahbadia, along with fellow content creator Ashish Chanchlani, was questioned for nearly five hours by Maharashtra Cyber officials regarding controversial remarks made on the show. He skipped previous summons but later appeared at the cyber headquarters in Navi Mumbai.
During questioning, Allahbadia admitted his mistake and said he had no bad intentions.
First Appearance After Controversy
This was Allahbadia and Chanchlani’s first public appearance since the controversy erupted. They arrived at 11:30 AM, and their statements were recorded. Allahbadia, wearing a black face mask, left the office around 5 PM, while Chanchlani departed an hour later.
Maharashtra Cyber has summoned over 50 individuals, including guests, social media influencers, and comedians, as part of the investigation.
Legal Trouble and Court Orders
Several FIRs have been filed against Allahbadia, including one in Guwahati on February 17. The case involves allegations of obscenity against multiple individuals, including Samay Raina, Ashish Chanchlani, comedians Jaspreet Singh, Apoorva Makhija, and Rakhi Sawant.
On February 18, the Supreme Court granted Allahbadia interim protection from arrest, directing him to:
- Cooperate with the investigation
- Submit his passport to Thane police
- Seek permission before traveling abroad
The next hearing is scheduled for March 3, while Allahbadia’s personal hearing, postponed due to death threats, is set for March 6.
