Disclaimer: This article includes mention of death and rape.

In an Instagram post, social media influencer Apoorva Mukhija, the influencer embroiled in a scandal surrounding the show India’s Got Latent, shared photos of death threats, acid attacks, and rape.

She made a reappearance on Instagram after removing her posts, posting screenshots of the comments left on her clips and photos. Some of the remarks threatened to kill her, while others promised to acid attack her. She wrote, “and that’s not even 1%”

The India’s Got Latent Controversy

The controversy started when YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia made derogatory comments about parents and sex on Samay Raina’s show India’s Got Latent in February.

The podcaster eventually apologized in public, admitting that his remarks lacked humor and seemed derogatory. “My comment wasn’t just inappropriate, it wasn’t even funny. Comedy is not my forte, I am just here to say sorry,” Allahbadia said in his apology.

He pledged to utilize his position more sensibly going forward in response to worries about his impact on younger viewers. “Family is the last thing that I would ever disrespect,” he added.

The aftermath

On February 10, Guwahati Police filed a formal complaint (FIR) against a number of influencers and YouTubers, including Ashish Chanchlani, Jaspreet Singh, Apoorva Mukhija, Ranveer Allahbadia, Samay Raina, and others, for promoting pornography and participating in obscene and sexually explicit conversations on the show “India’s Got Latent.”
