A video featuring popular YouTuber and podcaster Ranveer Allahbadia, also known as BeerBiceps, has gone viral, showing him in tears and expressing deep remorse. The video’s timing, coinciding with a recent controversy over his comments on the reality show India’s Got Latent, has led many to speculate that he is upset about losing work opportunities due to the backlash.
The controversy arose after Allahbadia made certain remarks on the show, sparking criticism on social media and prompting calls for action against him. Amidst this, the viral video is being shared widely with claims that he is reacting to the fallout from the controversy.
Claim
The viral video suggests that Ranveer Allahbadia is crying and expressing guilt over losing work due to the backlash from his comments on India’s Got Latent.
Fact
The video is being shared with a misleading narrative. The truth is that the video is from 2021 and is unrelated to the India’s Got Latent controversy. The original video was recorded during the second wave of COVID-19, when Allahbadia had tested positive for the virus. In the clip, he is seen discussing the challenges he and his team were facing at the time due to the halt in work caused by his illness. His emotional reaction was about the struggles of that period, not any recent controversy.
News outlets such as Hindustan Times, ABP Live, and India Today have confirmed that the viral clip is an old one being circulated out of context.
Conclusion
The claim that Ranveer Allahbadia’s emotional video is linked to the India’s Got Latent controversy is False Content. The video is being shared with a misleading context, as it actually dates back to 2021 and pertains to an entirely different situation—his struggles during the COVID-19 pandemic.
