Society will be ashamed of the perverted mind: SC pulls up Ranveer Allahbadia over comments made on 'India's Got Latent' show

The Supreme Court on Tuesday pulled up Ranveer Allahbadia for his controversial comments on Samay Raina's YouTube show 'India's Got Latent'. The court said that the words used will make parents, sisters and society ashamed and accused him of having a "perverted mind".

The bench of Justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh said, "The words you have chosen, parents will be ashamed, sisters will be ashamed. The entire society will feel ashamed. The perverted mind. These are the levels of depravity you and your henchmen have gone. We have a judicial system, bound by the rule of law. If there are threats, the law will take course, says Supreme Court."

The bench further asked "If this is not obscenity, what is it?"


However, Supreme Court provided interim relief to Allahbadia, saying no further FIR shall be registered against him on the basis of episode aired on show India's Got Latent. The court also asked him to deposit his passport with police, saying can’t leave the country without permission from the court.

The bench provided interim protection against arrest to Allahbadia.
