A fan who posted the video online captioned it with a mix of disbelief and excitement: “Ain’t no way Badshah said ‘Free Samay Raina’ at the end of the concert! LFG!!!” Social media erupted, with netizens celebrating Badshah’s show of solidarity.

What’s the fuss about?

For those out of the loop, comedian and YouTuber Samay Raina landed in controversy after an episode of India’s Got Latent featuring Ranveer Allahbadia resurfaced online. The show’s no-holds-barred humor went a little too far when Ranveer made a scandalous “parental sex” joke that triggered massive outrage. The question that sparked it all? “Would you rather watch your parents have s*x every day for the rest of your life or join in once and stop it forever?” Yikes.

Following the viral outrage, a police complaint was filed against Samay, Ranveer, and fellow co-judges Ashish Chanchlani, Jaspreet Singh, and Apoorva Makhija. The backlash was swift, and it didn’t take long for the pressure to mount.

He also assured full cooperation with authorities investigating the matter.

The fallout and what’s next

With police complaints in the mix, public figures taking sides, and social media in overdrive, this controversy isn’t dying down anytime soon. Badshah’s support has only fueled the flames, and fans are waiting to see if other celebrities will rally behind Samay.

One thing’s for sure: the India’s Got Latent saga is far from over, and the internet is eating up every second of it.
