He had been comfortably catering to his cult fan-base for months before a section of the public became outraged by comments made by Ranveer on the show. Subsequently, Samay was forced to take down every episode of the series, which had accumulated hundreds of millions of views over the months. A police investigation was launched into the controversy, and multiple individuals involved with the show were <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/cities\/mumbai\/samay-raina-indias-got-latent-cyber-police-9903944\/\" class=\"\">questioned by the police<\/a><\/strong>, while cases were registered against them.<\/p>\n<p>In an unreleased episode of the show, Ranveer Allahbadia, better known as BeerBiceps on social media, had made a comment that was perceived as inappropriate by a section of the public that was unfamiliar with the show\u2019s risque nature.

Nobody cares about nobodies. Let me give you an example. Recently, poor Samay Raina and Ranveer were involved in a controversy. Samay had been doing the same explicit material for months, but nobody cared. He was happy catering to his massive audience; the show was already a hit. But it became mainstream when a mainstream guy like Ranveer got on it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Mika said that he doesn\u2019t want to take Ranveer\u2019s side, only because he\u2019ll be targeted as well, and admitted that Ranveer must\u2019ve said something very offensive. \u201c<em>Bakwas baat ki hogi usne<\/em>, but his one mistake made the show an even bigger success. Controversy will follow when you become popular,\u201d he said, adding that his father once told him that he must be doing something right if people are finding reasons to hate him.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"subscriber_hide\" href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/subscribe\/upsc-special\/?utm_source=IESITE&amp;utm_medium=Banner&amp;utm_campaign=Inarticle\" title=\"Festive offer\" data-ie-event-category=\"Event_banner\" data-ie-event-action=\"Article\" data-ie-event-label=\"Desktop\"><img class=\"lazyloading\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"margin-bottom: 10px;\" data-lazy-type=\"lazyloading-image\" src=\"https:\/\/images.indianexpress.com\/2025\/04\/UPSC_banner_640x70.jpg\" alt=\"Festive offer\" width=\"640px\" height=\"99px\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Read more \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/indianexpress.com\/article\/entertainment\/bollywood\/salman-khan-drunk-mika-singh-stories-9978372\/\" class=\"\">\u2018After two drinks, Salman Khan is a different person\u2019: Mika has cracked the code to keeping Bhai happy, says he shouldn\u2019t be approached between 2 pm and 6 pm<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Both Samay Raina and Ranveer Allahbadia have apologised for their remarks.
