Ranveer Allahbadia returns with new video after controversy

Ranveer Allahbadia, a leading podcaster with over 16 million followers across social media, posted his first video on March 30, 2025, titled “Let’s Talk,” following a major controversy over his remarks on the YouTube show “India’s Got Latent.” The influencer faced backlash last month for comments made during Samay Raina’s comedy program, prompting multiple police complaints and a month-long break from content creation.

In the video, Allahbadia expressed gratitude to supporters who stood by him through a tough period marked by online threats and media scrutiny. He apologized to fans, acknowledging their view of him as a family member, and promised to create content more responsibly moving forward. “Now you will see a new Ranveer,” he said, signaling a fresh start for his podcast, “The Ranveer Show,” which he confirmed would resume soon with four weekly episodes.

The controversy erupted after Allahbadia’s remarks about parents and sex sparked outrage, leading to legal action and Supreme Court intervention. Though the court labeled his comments “vulgar,” it granted him interim protection from arrest and later allowed his show to continue this month. Allahbadia highlighted the unwavering support from his 300-member team and family, noting no one resigned despite the turmoil.

Reflecting on the ordeal as a transformative lesson, he vowed to let his work speak for itself. The podcaster’s return has reignited discussions among fans, with many eager to see how his renewed approach will shape his influential platform.
