Mumbai, Feb 10: After receiving widespread backlash for allegedly using 'abusive language' on the show 'India's Got Latent', YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia aka BeerBiceps has apologized for his comments.
Sharing a one- minute video, Allahbadia apologized and said, “My comment was not just inappropriate, it was not even funny. Comedy is not my forte. I am just here to say sorry. Many of you asked if this is how I wished to use my platform and obviously, this is not how I wish to use it. I am not going to give any context or justification or reasoning behind whatever happened. I am just here to apologise. I personally had a lapse in judgement. It was not cool on my part.”
He stated that he has requested India's Got Latent to remove the “insensitive sections” from the episode in which he appeared.
“I have asked the makers of the video to remove the insensitive sections from the video. All I can say in the end is sorry, I hope you can forgive me as a human being,” he concluded.
"I shouldn’t have said what I said on India’s Got Latent. I’m sorry," he wrote in the caption for the video that he shared on social media.
It is worth mentioning that Allahbadia appeared as a judge along with Samay Raina, Ashish Chanchlani and Apoorva Mukhija aka The Rebel Kid in the show. The comment that stirred up controversy is that when Allahbadia questioned one contestant, “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day or join them to finish it once and for all?”
The question even surprised even Raina, who asked, “What the f***?”
