Ranveer Allahbadia Reacts To Saurav Gujar's Death Threat After 'India's Got Lalent' Row; Here's What He Said

Ranveer Allahbadia made the news earlier this year when his comment on 'India's Got Latent' grabbed attention.

Ranveer Allahbadia Reacts To Saurav Gujar's Death Threats:

Recently, Ranveer shared a video on his Instagram handle in which he recalled watching Saurav Gujar's threatening video. “Saurav Gujar? He used to play Bheem in Mahabharat. Bheem was my favourite character. He is saying that he will kill me. I was like, Saurav bro, you? Bheem will beat me now. ‘I will kill you. (laughs) I was like, yo!" he said.

Asked if he will ever call Saurav on his podcast, Ranveer added, “I will call him because he used to like that old Mahabharat. I like Bheem a lot. He's been in WWE. As far as he promises not to hit me."

What Did Saurav Gujar Say?

Earlier this year, Saurav shared a video on his X handle and issued an open threat to Ranveer Allahbadia over his comments on India's Got Latent. He expressed disappointment with Allahbadia's remark about parents' sex and called it unacceptable.

“Whatever he did on the show, he cannot be forgiven for that. If we do not take action against him for his behaviour, then more people like him will say similar things. People like him have crossed all the limits. We should take legal action against people like him who are spoiling our society and religion by saying such things, so that the next generation can be saved. The kind of things he has said, I demand the government to take strict action against him. I am very angry right now. I don't want to use foul language. If I meet him anywhere, no one can save him from me for what he said on the show," Gurjar said in Hindi.

About India's Got Latent Controversy:

Ranveer Allahbadia faced immense backlash over his comments on Samay Raina's India's Got Latent. Allahbadia, also known as BeerBiceps, during an episode of the show, 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 the incident, multiple complaints were filed against Ranveer Allahbadia, Samay Raina, and several co-judges, including Ashish Chanchlani, Jaspreet Singh, and Apoorva Makhija.

Later, Ranveer also apologised for his words. He issued a video statement in which he 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."
