Sunil Pal’s words come at a time when Ranveer Allahbadia, also known as BeerBiceps, has been facing backlash over his recent comment on India’s Got Latent.
Sunil Pal demands strict action against Ranveer Allahbadia and Samay Raina.
Comedian Sunil Pal has lashed out at Ranveer Allahbadia and Samay Raina over the former’s recent comment on India’s Got Latent. In a recent interview, Pal accused Ranveer and Samay of spreading obscenity and went on to call them terrorists.
“Do not call them stand-up comedians. That would be an insult to real stand-up comedy. They are uneducated individuals who should be treated like terrorists,” Sunil Pal told IANS.
“Our youth are striving to be responsible and cultured individuals from respectable families. However, these so-called comedians are invited to public platforms where they indulge in vulgarity and offensive language. And the irony is that the organizers of these events are well-educated people. Instead of conveying meaningful messages, they are promoting obscenity,” he added.
Sunil Pal further argued that freedom of speech must not be used to justify offensive behaviour and asked authorities to take strict action against Ranveer and Samay. “They use the excuse of freedom of speech to justify their offensive behaviour. Freedom of speech exists for everyone in society, but that does not mean they have the right to insult others. If they want to indulge in such behaviour, they should do so in private, not on public platforms like YouTube, where their content is accessible to everyone. Actions must be taken against them. They should not be forgiven. If they are not punished, future generations will assume that success can be achieved by being abusive,” he said.
This comes at a time when Ranveer Allahbadia, also known as BeerBiceps, has been facing backlash over his recent comment on India’s Got Latent. He allegedly asked a contestant an inappropriate question involving body parts and proposed an indecent act in exchange for Rs 2 crore. The outrage peaked when he posed a controversial question: “Would you watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join once to stop it forever?”
Following this, a police complaint was filed against Ranveer, Samay and several co-judges, including Ashish Chanchlani, Jaspreet Singh and Apoorva Makhija. The FIR accuses them of promoting obscene and sexually explicit content on the show, invoking multiple sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS).
However, later, Ranveer also issued an apology via a video statement and said, “My comment wasn’t just inappropriate, it wasn’t even funny. Comedy is not my forte. I am just here to say sorry. Many of you asked if this is how I wish to use my platform and obviously, this is not how I wish to use it. I am not going to give any context, justification or reasoning behind whatever happened. I am just here for an apology.”
