Virat Kohli unfollows Ranveer Allahbadia on Instagram amid controversy.

YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia, popularly known as ‘BeerBiceps’, is at the center of a storm after making controversial remarks during his appearance on comedian Samay Raina’s roast show, India’s Got Latent. The comments, which involved an inappropriate question to a contestant, have sparked widespread outrage and controversy, including scrutiny from law enforcement.

The controversy: The incident occurred during an episode of India’s Got Latent, where Ranveer Allahbadia asked a contestant a question deemed highly inappropriate: “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once and stop it forever?” The comment quickly ignited a firestorm of reactions on social media, with many expressing disgust at the crudeness of the joke.

Virat Kohli’s reaction: In the wake of the backlash, cricketer Virat Kohli’s decision to unfollow Ranveer on Instagram has grabbed attention. Social media users were quick to notice that Kohli, who had previously posted pictures with Ranveer and his wife Anushka Sharma at public events, was no longer following the YouTuber. However, as of now, neither Kohli nor Ranveer has officially commented on the matter.

Impact on Ranveer’s social media following: Amid the growing backlash, Ranveer Allahbadia has seen a sharp decline in his social media following. Reports suggest he has lost over 8,000 followers on Instagram since the incident. Ranveer, who is known for his motivational content, has found himself at the center of heated debates on freedom of speech and the boundaries of comedy.

Legal action and apologies: An FIR has been filed against Ranveer Allahbadia, Samay Raina, and other participants involved in the show. They are set to appear before the police in the coming days to record their statements. Both Ranveer and Samay have issued public apologies, with Ranveer describing his comment as a “lapse in judgement” and acknowledging that comedy is not his forte. The India’s Got Latent episode has since been taken down from YouTube, and the show’s producers have removed all related content.

The bigger debate: The controversy has sparked a larger discussion on the boundaries of free speech and decency in digital content. While some argue for freedom of expression in comedy, others stress the need for responsible content creation in the wake of such incidents.

As the legal proceedings unfold, both the influencers involved and the general public continue to debate the implications of this incident on the digital landscape. Meanwhile, the question remains—has Virat Kohli’s unfollowing of Ranveer Allahbadia been influenced by the ongoing controversy?

Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw hails Tamil, says PM Modi wants every language to get its due respect

He began his speech with a traditional greeting of ‘Vanakkam’ and shared his limited knowledge of Tamil phrases, stating, “Tamil is a very, very sweet language… I know only three words: Vanakkam, Eppadi Irukeenga (How are you), and Nandri (Thank you).”

Lauding Tamil as a “sweet” language, Union Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw stated on Saturday, March 15, that it stands as a significant asset to both the nation and the world. At an event near Sriperumbudur, he emphasized the importance of all Indian languages, noting that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has consistently worked to ensure that every language receives the respect it deserves.

During the inauguration of Zetwerk Electronics’ manufacturing facility, Vaishnaw expressed his gratitude for having a professor named Sadagopan at IIT Kanpur, who introduced him to the richness of the Tamil language. He began his speech with a traditional greeting of ‘Vanakkam’ and shared his limited knowledge of Tamil phrases, stating, “Tamil is a very, very sweet language… I know only three words: Vanakkam, Eppadi Irukeenga (How are you), and Nandri (Thank you).”

He reflected on how Sadagopan enriched his understanding of Tamil culture, which he described as ancient and deeply rooted. “This is one of our country’s assets and also one of the world’s treasures. We should take pride in it and celebrate all Indian languages. This is the spirit that our Prime Minister embodies, ensuring that each language receives its rightful recognition and exposure,” he remarked.

To illustrate his point, Vaishnaw mentioned the Telecom and Data Protection Laws, highlighting the Prime Minister’s encouragement to offer legal notices in all Indian languages, not just in English. He reiterated the goal of fostering unity and understanding among diverse cultures and peoples within India.

“We must aim for a unified objective of strengthening our nation and striving to become the third largest economy,” he concluded, expressing his gratitude in Tamil with “rombha rombha nandri” (many, many thanks).

His remarks come in the context of ongoing language controversies in Tamil Nadu, where the ruling DMK party has accused the central government of enforcing Hindi through the National Education Policy, allegations that the Union government has refuted.

RJD leader Tej Pratap Yadav asks on-duty cop to dance during Holi celebration, video goes viral

The video captures Yadav, smeared with colors, singing a song and instructing the policeman to dance. He is heard saying, “I will play a song, and you will have to dance. If you don’t, you will be suspended.”

A video of Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) MLA Tej Pratap Yadav, son of former Union Minister Lalu Yadav, has gone viral on social media, showing him pressuring an on-duty police officer to dance during Holi celebrations at his residence in Patna.

In the clip, Yadav is seen threatening the officer with suspension if he refused to dance, leading to widespread criticism from political opponents.

The video captures Yadav, smeared with colors, singing a song and instructing the policeman to dance. He is heard saying, “I will play a song, and you will have to dance. If you don’t, you will be suspended.”

Yadav further added, “Ek ganna bajayenge, usme tumko thumka lagana hai, bura mat mano Holi hai. Aaj nahi thumka lagaoge toh suspend kar diye jaoge” (We will play a song, and you will have to dance to it. Don’t feel bad, it’s Holi. If you don’t dance today, you will be suspended). The policeman eventually complies, dancing as Yadav sings.

The incident has drawn sharp reactions from political leaders, with Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) spokesperson Shahnawaz Hussain condemning Yadav’s behavior. “He asked his bodyguard to dance; otherwise, he would suspend him. He has no power or authority to suspend anyone. This is Nitish Kumar’s government, not Jungle Raj. Using such language is unfortunate. RJD leaders have not evolved,” Hussain stated.

Janata Dal (United) (JDU) spokesperson Arvind Nishad also criticized Yadav, linking the incident to the past governance of Lalu Yadav and Rabri Devi. “The order given by MLA Tej Pratap Yadav to the police personnel assigned to his security to dance while on duty is a reminder of the Lalu-Rabri regime. His threats and actions are inappropriate. The way Holi was celebrated during their rule and how he recreated that chaos truly brings back memories of those days. In today’s governance, it is unimaginable how someone can behave in such a manner,” Nishad remarked.
