The FIR also accused Samay Raina of deliberately posting content to hurt religious sentiments which included statements made during a live stream, involving inappropriate remarks about women and religious beliefs.

The FIR came over Ranveer Allahbadia’s comments on ‘India’s Got Latent’ following which the influencer found himself in deeper trouble as Mumbai police arrived at his home for questioning. The episode was removed by YouTube and the issue was even brought up in Parliament.

Ranveer Allahbadia, who has over 16 million followers across various social media platforms, sparked a controversy when a clip of his comments went viral. Following this, he posted a video apology, calling his remark a “lapse in judgment."
