Popular YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia has apologized for his remark on parents for the second time, saying he feels scared as he and his family are receiving death threats. Allahbadia, one of the most influential podcasters with over 16 million followers across social media platforms, landed in a major controversy over his comment on parents and sex at Samay Raina's comedy show "India's Got Latent." He apologized the next day but the controversy refused to die down with police complaints filed against him and those involved with the show. On Saturday, he issued another apology on X and said he and his team are cooperating with the police and all other authorities.

While no one has appeared yet, some lawyers have requested more time from the police. The department has also asked the show's producers to remove all episodes from social media platforms. Meanwhile, Khar police in Mumbai are investigating a separate complaint filed by a local BJP functionary regarding the controversy, recording statements from several individuals, including Allahbadia's manager. The National Commission for Women (NCW) has also issued summons to Allahbadia, other participants, and the show's producers to appear before it in New Delhi.
