Pandey also flags a remark by Apoorva Mukhija, aka The Rebel Kid in which she spoke of the food habits in Arunachal Pradesh and said that such remarks endanger peace in the Northeastern state.
Trouble for Ranveer Allahbadia, founder of the popular YouTube channel ‘Beer Biceps’, doesn’t seem to end. After facing a huge backlash over his comments during a guest appearance on the YouTube show ‘India’s Got Latent’, the Mumbai Police has now filed a case against the influencer. A fresh FIR has also been filed against YouTuber Apoorva Makhija and comic Samay Raina, among others.
Police have filed the fresh FIR based on a complaint that accused the social media influencers of degrading the Indian family system and hurting religious feelings.
The complainant, Sanmati Pandey, described the marriage as a religious rite and said the podcaster’s remarks had insulted his religious beliefs. The YouTuber, the complaint has said, acted with malicious intent. Allahbadia’s controversial remark, “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once and stop it forever?” has created a huge uproar in the social media space.

The complainant on Samay Raina said that he is responsible as he was part of the jury and the production of the show and also shared videos on social media.
The Maharashtra cyber cell, too, has filed a case under the IT Act. Reports say that notices are being sent to at least 30 people linked to the show and they would have to appear before the Cyber Cell and record their statements.
