Varun Dhawan once went on the BeerBiceps show and Ranveer Allahbadia asked him about India’s Got Latent.
When BeerBiceps asked VD if he would like to be a part of India’s Got Latent, the actor said, “I would go for it. I could get cancelled but I feel maybe his show would get affected negatively. Because the more eyeballs you get in that way sometimes when you are doing that humour.”
He added, “He is not scared of all that. I would do it in a skip of a heartbeat, but for the teams I am leading, I’ll have to do it when I am not promoting a film. So that there is nobody else caught in the crossfire because there will be a crossfire for sure.”
The Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) on Wednesday claimed comedian Samay Raina’s upcoming shows in Gujarat have been cancelled following outrage over crass remarks made on the latest episode of his controversial YouTube reality programme, “India’s Got Latent”.
The VHP said tickets for Raina’s shows scheduled in April were no longer available for sale on online platform BookMyShow.
Social media influencer Ranveer Allahbadia (31) stirred up a major controversy with comments on parents and sex on Raina’s show that went viral on social media on Monday, leading to widespread criticism and multiple police complaints in Mumbai and Guwahati Gujarat VHP spokesperson Hitendrasinh Rajput said stand-up comedian Raina had planned four shows in the state — one each in Surat on April 17 and Vadodara on April 18, and two in Ahmedabad on April 19 and 20.
“It appears all these four shows have been cancelled due to public outrage against him in Gujarat. Though tickets for these shows were available till morning (of Wednesday) on BookMyShow, it seems they have been now taken down from the portal,” claimed Rajput.
