Fast forward to June 2026, and Pranit More has become the subject of controversy himself. A clip from a performance at Gurugram's Comedy Circuit recently went viral, sparking accusations of misogyny and insensitivity. The debate centred around audience interactions and comments involving women, leading to discussion about the boundaries of crowd work in stand-up comedy

As comedian Pranit More finds himself at the centre of a fresh controversy over remarks made during a stand-up show in Gurugram, an old clip from his Bigg Boss 19 debut is once again drawing attention online. Interestingly, months before facing backlash himself, Pranit had taken a light-hearted dig at fellow comedian Samay Raina, who was then dealing with controversies surrounding his show India's Got Latent.

The timeline has now caught the attention of social media users. Earlier in 2025, Samay found himself in trouble after India's Got Latent sparked outrage. FIRs were filed against several individuals associated with the show, including Samay, Apoorva Mukhija, Ashish Chanchlani and Ranveer Allahbadia, over allegations of promoting obscenity and sexually explicit conversations on a publicly accessible platform.

In another development, the Supreme Court of India directed social media influencers, including Samay, to display an apology on their podcasts and programmes for mocking persons with disabilities. Samay and four other influencers were also summoned over allegedly offensive remarks against disabled persons.

A few months later, in August 2025, Pranit entered the Bigg Boss 19 house and appeared to make an indirect reference to the controversies surrounding comedians while speaking to host Salman Khan during the premiere episode.
