Ranveer Allahabadia Approaches Supreme Court Against Multiple FIRs Over Obscenity Allegations

YouTuber Ranveer Allahabadia, popularly known as Beer Biceps, has approached the Supreme Court seeking relief in respect of the multiple FIRs lodged against him in various states for the offence of obscenity over the statements made by him during the 'India Got Latent' show.

Dr Abhinav Chandrachud mentioned the matter before Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna today. He said that it was a petition under Article 32 of the Constitution.

CJI Khanna said that a date has already been given for the petition. Though Chandrachud said that there was an apprehension of coercive action by the Assam police, CJI Khanna did not say anything further. CJI said that he does not allow oral mentionings and clarified that a listing date has been assigned.

As of date, FIRs have been registered by the Maharashtra Police and Assam Police over the statements, which created a huge outrage after they became viral on the social media. Later, Allahabadia issued a public apology, admitting that his comments were inappropriate.

In 2024, Allahbadia was presented the Disruptor of the Year award at the National Creators Award by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
