He is also set for three shows in Pune from September 26 to 28, before concluding the tour in Delhi with back-to-back performances on October 3, 4, and 5.
About India's Got Latent Controversy
Samay's show India's Got Latent sparked major controversy after podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia made a distasteful remark, asking a contestant an inappropriate ‘parents’ sex’ question. The comment triggered severe backlash against Ranveer, Samay, Apoorva Mukhija, and Ashish Chanchlani, leading to multiple FIRs being filed against them.
Following the outrage, Samay deleted all episodes of India’s Got Latent from his YouTube channel.
