India’s Got Latent is a show that’s been making waves online thanks to its bold, edgy humor. With nearly 20 episodes, the show’s popularity has been rising on the charts. But with fame comes controversy. The latest episode, featuring big names like Apoorva Mukhija, aka Rebel Kid, Ranveer Allahbadia (Beer Biceps), Ashish Chanchlani, and Jaspreet Singh, crossed a line that many viewers felt was too far.
While Ranveer Allahbadia’s explicit “Would You Rather” joke has already led to an FIR, Apoorva Mukhija is also catching serious heat for her comment about a woman’s body part, which many found offensive.
Who Is Apoorva Mukhija, aka Rebel Kid?
Apoorva Mukhija, known as Rebel Kid, became popular during the COVID-19 lockdown with her bold and unfiltered Instagram reels. She calls herself a Kaleshi Aurat, and her content is known for being raw, often filled with expletives and no-holds-barred commentary, which resonates with a young audience. Over time, she expanded her content and collaborated with big brands like OnePlus, Netflix, Spotify, Google, Amazon, and Meta.
She has 2.6 million followers on Instagram and over 500,000 YouTube subscribers, and she claims that most of her fans are women. However, despite her growing popularity, she still faces criticism, especially for using foul language.
What Is The Controversy?
India’s Got Latent is known for its dark, edgy humor, but this time, many fans think the creators went too far. The episode, only available for paid members, showed the influencers joking around with explicit language that didn’t sit well with the audience.
The biggest controversy came when a contestant made a remark saying, “V*gina mein sensation khatam ho gaya hai” (Is there no sensation in your v*gina?). To this, Apoorva Mukhija shot back, “Kabhi v*gina dekhi hai maa se nikalne ke baad?” (Have you ever seen a v*gina after exiting your mother?). While the audience and panel laughed, many viewers online were not amused. People called out the joke for being crude and unnecessary, sparking a wave of backlash.
Not Her First Controversy
This isn’t the first time Apoorva has been in the middle of drama. Not long ago, a video from her appearance at Delhi Technological University (DTU) went viral, showing her clashing with hecklers in the audience. When some people started shouting at her, she fired back, saying, “100 baar aur todungi aur tu idhar aaja teri haddiyan bhi todungi” (I’ll break it a hundred more times, come here and I’ll break your bones too). Her bold response quickly spread online, adding fuel to the debates around her confrontational style.
Wider Outrage And Boycott Calls
While Apoorva’s comment got people talking, Ranveer Allahbadia’s joke seems to have caused even more outrage. He asked a contestant, “Would you rather watch your parents have s*x every day for the rest of your life or join in once and stop it forever?” The question shocked many and spread like wildfire on social media, leading to calls for boycotting the show.
Government Responds
The controversy got so big that Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis had to step in. When asked about the viral clip, Fadnavis said he hadn’t seen the video but was told about its vulgar nature.
“I have been informed about this, though I have not watched it yet. I came to know that it was very vulgar and this was wrong. Everyone has freedom of speech, but this freedom ends when we encroach upon others’ freedom. Everyone has limits, and if anyone crosses them, action will be taken,” Fadnavis told reporters.
What’s Next?
With FIRs being filed and public outrage growing, it looks like the creators and influencers involved in India’s Got Latent might be facing serious consequences. Whether they’ll tone down their content or continue pushing the envelope remains to be seen. One thing’s for sure—viewers aren’t letting this slide easily.
People on social media weren’t holding back. Some found the jokes hilarious, but many others felt the humor went from edgy to downright offensive. What got people talking wasn’t just the vulgar language—it was the idea that influencers with massive followings were normalizing this kind of content. With so many young fans watching, a lot of people are questioning whether these jokes are setting the wrong example. The biggest question is where the line should be drawn between being funny and being disrespectful.
