Comedian Samay Raina has expressed regret over the controversy surrounding his reality show ‘India’s Got Latent’, as discussions around the issue begin to settle.

In an official statement, Raina acknowledged the impact of the controversy, stating: "I will be careful next time to ensure such incidents don’t happen again. This situation has deeply affected my mental state. My Canada tour did not go well either. I regret my words and understand that what I said was wrong."

India Tour Rescheduled Amid Controversy

Amid the ongoing backlash, Raina had initially delayed his return to India and rescheduled his stand-up tour. Taking to Instagram Stories, he reassured ticket holders about refunds, writing: "Hello guys, I’m rescheduling my India tour. You all will get refunds shortly, see you soon."

The ‘India’s Got Latent’ Controversy

The uproar stems from controversial remarks made by podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia during an episode of India’s Got Latent, which quickly went viral. Allahbadia’s explicit comments about parents and sex sparked widespread backlash, leading to legal action.

Following the outrage, multiple police complaints were filed against Allahbadia and others associated with the show in Mumbai and Guwahati. The Mumbai Police Cyber Cell has since launched a formal investigation into the matter.

The controversy comes in the wake of heightened social tensions following the release of ‘Chhaava’, adding fuel to ongoing discussions on public discourse and responsibility in digital content.
