“Ranveer Allahbadia, Ranveer Singh, Yash Rathi in Legal Trouble: Outrage Complaints Over ’Vulgar’ Remarks Caused An Outpour Of Anger” “Everyone, brace yourselves, the internet is burning! There’s a new controversy in Bollywood and the creator space with the likes of Ranveer Allahbadia (Beer Biceps) actor Ranveer Singh and influencer Yash Rahi, with recently legal issues over “vulgar” and “obscene” comments. This issue has created a storm on social media, raising critical concerns over the accountability of public figures and misuse of free speech in the Indian entertainment industry.” The Bombshell Complaints: What’s the Drama About? Delhi based activist Arun Srivastava has lodged a police FIR against the trio where he alleges them for “Inappropriate, Sexually explicit, lewd ,degrading and insulting” remarks aimed at “Indian culture.” The police report explains that immediate action should be taken according to specific parts of the IPC (294, 509) and the IT Act. Ranveer Allahbadia’s Controversy: Stemming from his now-infamous joke on India’s Got Latent where he posed a question to a contestant “would you rather watch parents having sex every day or join in once?”. His comment was branded as “disgusting” and “misogynistic” by social media users. Yash Rathi’s Role: The influencer is said to have further attegned what Allahbadia said spreading his joke in the guise of “dark humour”.
Ranveer Singh’s Past Resurfaces: Old interviews of the actor surfaced in which he made ‘provocative statements’ regarding relationships and intimacy. These interviews drew criticism and were called “vulgar.”
Netizens Erupt: “Enough is Enough!”
Social media users today seem to be equally angered and praising Singh. While some users defend him, saying, “Comedy is a form of art that requires more freedom”, others are absolutely fuming. “These celebs think they are above simple decency? Pathetic!” one user tweeted. And even politicians have joined the performance:
Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis: “Freedom of speech does not mean having a license to insult Indian culture.”
Congress’s Supriya Shrinate: “Such statements highlight women as an object making and patronising wickedness.”
NCW’s Intervention: The National Women’s Commission has said that action needs to be taken, stating that, “There is no second opinion that the content is derogatory to women’s sensitivity.”
Ranveer Allahbadia’s Emotional Apology: Will It Save His Career?
While the rest of his fellow colleagues seem to be in full support of him, he had previously made a racist remark, so-we all know which direction his career is headed. The motivational influencer weeps in his apology, “I have wronged, and for that, I thank people. I have crossed lines. I know my words hurt people and for that, I am very sorry. I shall take it upon myself to ensure my platform moves in respect and positivity.” He further stated that the controversial part stemmed from anger and was edited without his consent.
But critics aren’t buying it. Under a viral Instagram post, one cringe worthy statement quoted “These sorry ass apologies do not do the damage,” said one account, “Lessons can be learnt from this in my opinion pages.”
There is still no public response from Ranveer Singh and Yash Rathi and this leaves room to question what they will do next.
Bigger Than Bollywood: A Cultural Reckoning
This controversy is not only about three high profile people; it is the epicenter of India’s cultural conflicts. People are more challened by OTT platforms and social media and the definition of “boundary pushing” versus “obscene” content has significantly changed, There are many questions out there such as – “Is there a limit,” and “if so, what is it?”
Fans Feel Betrayed: Allahbadia followers who built their expectations on “self-improvement” are feeling disappointed. A disenchanted follower highlighted, “We were taught discipline, why is this rubbish being shown to us?”
The Legal Angle:
Creativity might be limited if there is a lack balance provided through clear guidelines based on vague IT laws and growing phenomenon of “cancel culture.”
What Happens Next?
With cops looking into the claims and public pressure increasing, the risks are enormous, For Allahbadia, this can mean a shift in what he does next and now he will have to spend the next few months trying to salvage the damage he has done. For Bollywood’s already under scrutiny Ranveer Singh, the controversy will lead to more discussions on the responsibility of stars in pop culture.
Final Takeaway: A Wake-Up Call for Celebrities
This controversy gives a very dire lesson; ever put a foot out of line, the entire world will chase you! Either way, false or real, like India’s entertainment industry, put out some response, and there is always expectation. Rise out or fall, it’s your choice.
