YouTuber Gaurav Taneja, popularly known as Flying Beast, has strongly criticized comedian Samay Raina and podcast host Ranveer Allahbadia (BeerBiceps) over a controversial joke made on the internet show India’s Got Latent. The remark, which many have found deeply inappropriate, has sparked significant backlash on social media, with calls for action against the show’s creators and judges.

The controversy began when Allahbadia, who was a guest judge on the show alongside Raina, Ashish Chanchlani, and social media influencer Apoorva Mukhija (The Rebel Kid), posed an offensive question to a contestant. He asked, “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day or join them once to stop it?” Even Samay Raina appeared shocked, responding with an expletive. However, the moment quickly went viral, drawing criticism from audiences and fellow content creators alike.
Following the uproar, Gaurav Taneja took to X (formerly Twitter) to call out the comedian and the show. He wrote, “Lagta hai Samay Raina poore YouTube India ko cancel karwa ke hi maanega” (Looks like Samay Raina won’t stop until the entire YouTube India gets canceled). His post added fuel to the already growing outrage against India’s Got Latent, which has been previously criticized for promoting crass humor and misogynistic content.
The issue has now escalated beyond social media debates, as a formal complaint has been registered against Allahbadia, Raina, Apoorva Mukhija, and the show’s organizers for the alleged use of abusive language. Many users have called for strict action, demanding that YouTube India take responsibility for the content circulating on its platform.
Ranveer Allahbadia, known for his deep-dive interviews with politicians, entrepreneurs, and celebrities, has particularly come under scrutiny due to his past association with high-profile personalities, including an award from Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Critics argue that such remarks are not just offensive but also damaging, especially when coming from a public figure with a massive following.
