Both the Maharashtra Cyber and Mumbai police are investigating the situation following controversial statements made by YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia on Samay Raina's YouTube program, where Apoorva is also mentioned. To date, the Maharashtra Cyber Cell has documented statements from over 6 individuals involved in the India's Got Latent case.
Previously, Ranveer Allahbadia expressed his concerns about potential violence, mentioning that individuals had intruded into his mother's clinic. He shared his concerns on Instagram, stating, “My team and I are cooperating with the police and all other authorities. I will adhere to the legal process and remain available to law enforcement. My comments about parents were inappropriate and disrespectful. It is my ethical duty to improve, and I sincerely apologize. I'm facing numerous death threats from people who wish to harm me and my family. People have invaded my mother's clinic under the guise of being patients.”
Nevertheless, he reaffirmed his confidence in India's judicial framework, asserting that he would stand firm against those issuing threats.
He added, “I'm feeling frightened and uncertain about my next steps. However, I'm not fleeing. I have complete faith in the police and the judicial system of India.”
The uproar stemmed from Ranveer Allahbadia's remarks concerning parents and sexuality on comedian Samay Raina's show, which went viral and led to widespread criticism.
