AR Rahman took a dig at Samay Raina and Ranveer Allahabadia’s controversy.
Comedian Samay Raina has found himself in a big controversy owing to his show India’s Got Latent over the past week. The row began when podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia made a controversial joke on ‘parental sex’ that went viral on Samay Raina’s show. In the viral video, the influencer was seen asking a contestant, “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once and stop it forever.” This remark was seen as vulgar and offensive.
And now, Oscar-winning composer AR Rahman has taken a dig at it. At the Chhaava event, Rahman was asked by Vicky Kaushal to describe his music in 3 emojis. The celebrated music composer and singer said ‘with mouth closed’. He went on to add, “I think, past week we have seen what all happens when the mouth opens.” The comment caught Vicky Kaushal and everyone present at the event off-guard. Vicky said, “Talk about roasting.” He then asked what would the second emoji be. To this, AR Rahman added, “All three mouth closed.”
Meanwhile, Samay Raina on Wednesday announced that he has deleted all videos of his show “India’s Got Latent” from his YouTube channel amid the brewing controversy.
In his first reaction to the controversy, Samay Raina said everything that has been happening has been “too much for me to handle” and all ‘India’s Got Latent’ videos were removed from his channel. Raina said his only objective was to make people laugh and said he would fully cooperate with all agencies in the investigation process.
“Everything that is happening has been too much for me to handle. I have removed all Indias Got Latent videos from my channel. My only objective was to make people laugh and have a good time. I will fully cooperate with all agencies to ensure their inquiries are concluded fairly. Thank you,” he said on his X handle.
