Raghu Ram on being part of India’s Got Latent: Was so unrestrained…

In an interaction with YouTube channel GPlus, MTV Roadies creator Raghu Ram revealed “despite not being a comedian, he was also part of the infamous AIB (All India Bak**od), apart from India’s Got Latent.” Raghu then proceeded to say when he recently visited a school for his son’s admission, the teacher immediately recognised him and told him, “I loved you in Latent and I was like ‘why did you watch it?'” He added, “It was a good experience and I guess many people would have gotten offended.”

He further shared, “You can have fun without any fear because there, no one takes you seriously. Like they say, 'Jaisa des, waisa bhes. Even at the AIB Roast, everyone was insulting each other but no one was taking it seriously. If you find a place where no one takes each other seriously, you have a freedom there."

Raghu Ram was questioned by the Maharashtra Cyber Police on February 13, which was in regard to his involvement in an episode of India’s Got Latent. He recorded his statement as part of the ongoing investigation.
