Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India] February 20: During one of his recent performances, comedian Daniel Fernandes made fun of the ongoing India's Got Latent controversy. The comedian joked at the authorities and told fans that they shouldn't worry while supporting fellow stand-up comedian Samay Raina throughout his difficult times.
Don't be, because with the way things are done in this country, all they'll ask him to do is write a 300-word essay, and he'll be out.”
A statement made by guest Ranveer Allahbadia in the most recent episode of Samay Raina's show India's Got Latent caused controversy. 'Watching your parents have sex or joining them' was the joke that BeerBiceps, whose re al name is Allahbadia, made. Several FIRs were filed against the two and other participants as a result of the highly criticised comment.

Daniel Fernandes jokes out of India's latent controversy
Daniel Fernandes also mentioned Ranveer Allahbadia in his set, mocking the controversy and legal actions against him. “Have you guys followed the news this past week? Just one headline everywhere because all the other issues in India have been resolved. Outrage in Indian comedy is like flu season. Every six months somebody will watch a video and go… my sentiments,” Fernandes said, adding. “But this time the backlash is quite severe. Have you noticed? There are some catastrophic consequences of what has happened. Multiple FIRs were filed, videos were taken down” said Fernandes.

Samay Raina additionally made fun of what occurred during a recent performance in Edmonton, Canada, which was his first since the controversy surfaced earlier this month. In a post on his experience with the performance, a fan called Shubham Dutta cited Samay as stating, "'Shayad samay kharab chal raha hai mera, par yaad rakhna doston, main samay hoon (Maybe my time is bad right now, but remember, my friends—I am time itself)'."
The Supreme Court has criticised the show and Allahbadia in an ongoing proceeding on the show's alleged obscenity.
