Cyrus defends Samay Raina and Ranveer Allahbadia
India’s comedy scene is once again caught in a storm of controversy, and this time, it’s about Samay Raina’s roast show, "India’s Got Latent." What started as an entertaining roast quickly turned into a heated debate after a joke by guest Ranveer Allahbadia sparked backlash for being offensive.
Cyrus Broacha Hits Back at Critics
At a recent ABP News event, veteran comedian Cyrus Broacha came out in support of Samay Raina and Ranveer Allahbadia, urging people to not treat them like criminals over a joke. He strongly opposed the idea of canceling comedians over controversies, emphasizing that comedy is meant to push boundaries and should not lead to career-ending consequences.
His statement –
👉 "I don’t think they should be treated like common criminals or have their careers stopped."
– has reignited the debate on freedom of speech in comedy.
Comedy or Controversy? Where Do We Draw the Line?
This is not the first time a roast show has led to public outrage. In a country where humor is subjective, comedians often walk a tightrope between satire and offense. Some believe that jokes should have no limits, while others argue that comedy should be responsible and mindful of sensitivities.
Social Media Reactions
As expected, Twitter and Instagram are flooded with mixed opinions:
🔥 Some are supporting Samay and Ranveer, arguing that comedy should be unfiltered and bold.
🚨 Others believe jokes should have boundaries, especially in a diverse country like India.
Final Thoughts
This controversy raises a bigger question—should comedians be punished for pushing limits, or should audiences learn to take a joke? 🤔
