Comedian Samaya Raina's hugely successful show 'India's Got Latent' landed in legal trouble after a comment by panel member Ranveer Allahbadia aka BeerBiceps was looked at as immoral and vulgar. His remark on 'parents and sex' offended several people leading to police complaints in different states. As the controversy heats up, comedian and lyricist Varun Grover shared his take on the matter in a witty and intellectual manner.
Varun Grover spoke about the ongoing controversy and shared his thoughts in a witty manner during one of his recent stand-up acts. He shared the clip on social media which is now going viral. "Video recording nahi karni hai (please don’t record) because that is how the comedy world works right? It is a new material. There is a whole process. Hum likhte hain... 3-4 mahina naya content likhte hain fir woh 1 ghante ka show banta hai. Fir woh show ke saath hum tour karte hain all over India (We write new content to make a set, and then go on tour all over the country). Once the tour is almost over, then we record it, and put it on YouTube and then go to jail,” Varun said leading to big laughter.
