What did Ranveer Allahbadia say?

Ranveer Allahbadia passed the remark as a ‘question’ to a contestant who participated in the latest episode of 'India’s Got Latent'.

“Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day or join them to finish it once and for all?” Ranveer Allahbadia asked a contestant.

Ranveer was accompanied by Samay Raina, Ashish Chanchlani, Apoorva Mukhija aka The Rebel Kid, and others. His fellow ‘judges’ also appeared to have been taken aback by Ranveer's remark.

"These comments, which have sparked widespread public outrage, violate the dignity and respect owed to every individual, particularly in a society that upholds equality and mutual respect. In light of this concern, under the instructions of NCW Chairperson Vijaya Rahatkar, a hearing has been scheduled to address the controversial remark made by the content creators on India's Got Latent," the NCW said statement.
