Passport Returned After The Supreme Court Order:

Earlier, the Supreme Court provided major relief to the creator by ordering the release of his passport, which had been confiscated following the backlash from his controversial remarks on 'India's Got Latent'. The court permitted him to approach the Maharashtra Cyber Crime Bureau for its return, allowing him to resume international travel for professional commitments.

Shortly after the court's decision, Allahbadia posted a update from the airport with a suitcase in hand. He wrote, “Passport mil gaya guys (have got my passport back guys),” and also shared a screenshot of the Supreme Court's directive. Another image showed him relaxing in business class, evidently enjoying his freedom to travel again.

About the Controversy:

In February, Allahbadia faced serious backlash after remarking on an episode of 'India's Got Latent', which featured influencers Apoorva Mukhija and Ashish Chanchlani. Although the audience and guests laughed it off at the time, the clip sparked outrage among social media users and political figures. Several FIRs were filed against the show's creators and participants.

Allahbadia later posted an apology video on X, admitting, “The comment was not just inappropriate, but also not funny.” He also submitted a written apology to the National Commission for Women.
