Calling filth and perversion 'humor' doesn’t make it any less toxic.

As Ranveer Allahbadia's clips went viral, calls to boycott the influencer grew louder. His followers declined massively, and several commercial brands reportedly cut ties with him.
Amid the backlash, Ranveer took to X (formerly Twitter) to issue an apology.
"My comment was not just inappropriate—it wasn't even funny. Comedy is not my forte. I'm just here to say sorry," he stated.
He added, "Many of you asked if this is how I wish to use my platform. Obviously, this is not how I want to use it. I am not going to give any context, justification, or reasoning behind what happened. I am just here to apologize. I personally had a lapse in judgment. It wasn't cool on my part."
"Family is the last thing I would ever disrespect. I need to use this platform more responsibly, and that's been my biggest learning from this experience. I promise to do better. I have asked the makers of the video to remove the insensitive sections, and all I can say in the end is that I am sorry. I hope you can forgive me as a human being."
Meanwhile, a formal complaint has been filed against Ranveer Allahbadia, social media influencer Apoorva Mukhija, comedian Samay Raina, and the organizers of India's Got Latent. The complaint, registered with both the Mumbai Commissioner and the Maharashtra Women's Commission, alleges that abusive language was used on the show. The complainant has demanded strict legal action against the accused.
