Mumbai: Earlier this year, YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia got embroiled in a controversy for his cuss remarks and jokes in an episode of ‘India’s Got Latent.’

Following the controversy which broke in February, several celebrities claimed they had turned down the invitation to appear on the show.

Ranveer has now claimed that those celebrities were actually never invited on the show.

During an episode of Prafful Garg’s ‘Mission India’ on YouTube, Ranveer clarified, “It was a feeding frenzy. Some celebrities claimed that they’d even rejected an invite to the show. The truth is that we never invited them in the first place. In such situations, I felt angry at human beings in general. But I realised that the predicament that I was in was a result of my own actions.”

He added, “I couldn’t change the past, but I could change the future. I got a forced break after a crazy, intense six-year podcasting journey. I’m just trying to move on; I’ve tried to forgive a lot of people, even myself, and to a degree, I’ve been successful.”

For the unversed, on the Samay Raina-hosted show, Ranveer had asked a contestant, “Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once to make it stop forever?”

Ranveer’s remarks didn’t go down well with some politicians and social media users, who slammed the YouTuber and filed multiple FIRs against him.

Ranveer later issued an apology on X (formerly known as Twitter), and also a written apology to the NCW.
