New Delhi: Apex Court on Monday blasted Comedian Samay Raina for speaking about the controversy surrounding his show ‘India’s Got Latent’ in Canada, saying the young generation thinks they are oversmart. The top court was hearing a petition of Podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, who sparked a huge uproar last month by making crass remarks on Raina’s show.
Justice Surya Kant said that these young and oversmart ones think they know more than this…One of them went to Canada and spoke about all this. To this, Solicitor General of India Tushar Mehta said, yes, he (referring to Raina) went abroad and made fun of this proceeding.
Possibly, they do not know the jurisdiction which this court enjoys,” Justice Surya Kant added, warning the Youtubers to “behave”. “Behave, or else we know how to deal with you he said. Raina, who was on a ‘Samay Raina Unfiltered’ tour in Canada last month, made a light-hearted comment on the controversy.
A row broke out last month after Ranveer Allahbadia, popularly known as The BeerBiceps Guy, made distasteful comments about parents and sex on Raina’s show ‘India’s Got Latent’. The remarks sparked massive outrage and a debate in Parliament.
