Comedian Samay Raina discussed the uproar over a question that Ranveer Allahbadia, commonly known as Beer Biceps, asked during an episode of India's Got Latent last year. On Tuesday, he disclosed that Allahbadia posed the controversial question eight times in his most recent stand-up special, Samay Raina Still Alive, but he removed all of that and kept one.

Samay Raina explained why he left the question in the show's final cut, which ultimately caused a controversy. "Main tumhe maa ki kasam sach batata hoon. Uss episode main Beer Biceps ne voh sawal 8 baar poocha tha. Aur iske alawa bhi kayi ant shant sawal pooche the usne. Toh ab jab maine edit dekha na, maine kaha, 'Yeh toh bohot gandi baatein kari hain isne'."

Samay Raina revealed that he made the decision to keep one and delete the others, which, in his view, meant getting rid of 99 percent of the offensive material.

For those who don't know, Ranveer Allahbadia asked a contestant a 'vulgar' question that caught everyone's attention. "Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once to make it stop forever?" he asked. Even though the panel, which included Ashish Chanchlani and Apoorva Mukhija, laughed off the remark, it caused a major uproar and resulted in several FIRs against Ranveer and the show's creators, who also received death threats.

Meanwhile, the audience was thrilled with Samay Raina's honest admissions, which he delivered in his signature manner. The short clips from the special have begun to trend on social media. His fans hailed his candor and fortitude in handling the matter.
