India's Got Latent Controversy: Complaint Filed Against Ranveer Allahbadia, Samay Raina For 'Promoting Obscenity'

India's Got Latent Controversy: Ranveer Allahbadia appeared in the latest episode of the Samay Raina-led show that has sparked a major outrage on social media. In a video clip, now viral online, the digital content creator could be heard asking lewd, incestuous questions to a contestant regarding parental intercourse. Instead of editing the part or condemning the question, the other panellists celebrated it and encouraged the Allahbadia which sparked questions on freedom of speech and censorship on such platforms. As a result, the Hindu IT cell has filed a complaint against the show.
