YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia, popularly known as BeerBiceps, has approached the Supreme Court seeking relief against multiple FIRs filed against him in various states. These FIRs were lodged following controversial remarks made during a now-deleted YouTube reality show, ‘India’s Got Latent’, hosted by comedian Samay Raina.
Through his lawyer, Abhinav Chandrachud—son of former Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud—Allahbadia filed a petition in the Supreme Court requesting the clubbing of the FIRs registered against him across different states. He also sought anticipatory bail, expressing concerns over potential arrest by the Guwahati police, who have already issued summons to him and others associated with the show.
The petition sought an early hearing, which was mentioned before Chief Justice of India Sanjiv Khanna. However, the CJI declined to grant an immediate hearing, noting that a date had already been assigned for the case.
