From Triveni Sangam to Supreme Court: The Two Sides of Modern Bharat

 By Aryan Prem Rana, VRIGHTPATH

Bharat Varsh is hosting the world’s largest religious gathering, where over 570 million devotees have participated in the sacred bathing rituals at the Triveni Sangam and other ghats. It is the world's largest spiritual congregation, bringing together seekers, saints, and common people to purify themselves through rituals, discussions, and spiritual experiences. हिंदी में पढ़िए

On the other hand, it is deeply unfortunate that the recent controversy involving comedian Samay Raina and YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia, popularly known as BeerBiceps, has escalated into a nationwide legal battle. The matter has reached the Supreme Court of India and even drawn attention in Parliament. The controversy stems from remarks made by Allahbadia during an episode of Raina’s YouTube show India’s Got Latent, which have led to multiple legal cases being filed against him across the country.

Earlier this week, Allahbadia appeared before the Supreme Court seeking the consolidation of the multiple FIRs filed against him. While granting him interim bail, the Court reprimanded him for his comments, signaling the gravity of the matter.


Legal Proceedings Against Samay Raina, Ranveer Allahbadia, and Others

The FIR That Started It All

The controversy erupted after a clip featuring Ranveer Allahbadia’s remarks went viral on social media. On February 10, an FIR was filed in Guwahati, Assam, against Allahbadia, Raina, and others, including content creators Apoorva Makhija, YouTuber Ashish Chanchalani, and comedian Jaspreet Singh. The charges include “promoting obscenity and engaging in sexually explicit and vulgar discussions,” as confirmed by Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma.

Legal Sections Invoked

The Guwahati Crime Branch registered a case under various sections, including:

o Sections 79, 95, 294, and 296 of BNS 2023

o Section 67 of the IT Act, 2000

o Sections 4 and 7 of the Cinematograph Act, 1952

o Sections 4 and 6 of the Indecent Representation of Women (Prohibition) Act, 1986

Multiple Cases Filed Across India

Apart from Assam, the show’s organizers and participants face legal action in Mumbai under relevant sections of the IT Act. The Mumbai Cyber Cell has reportedly filed cases against 30-40 individuals, including guests from previous episodes. Jaipur police have also lodged a case.

Supreme Court’s Intervention

The Supreme Court, while granting interim bail to Ranveer Allahbadia, expressed strong disapproval of his remarks. The Court halted the filing of any new FIRs against him but directed him to submit his passport and refrain from leaving the country without prior approval. Additionally, he has been ordered to temporarily stop posting content.

Maharashtra Cyber Cell’s Summons to Samay Raina

On February 17, the Maharashtra Cyber Cell denied Raina’s request to record his statement virtually, as he is currently in the United States. He was asked to appear physically the next day but failed to do so. Authorities have stated that fresh summons will be issued against him.

Ranveer Allahbadia’s Upcoming Appearance:

Despite the ongoing investigation, Ranveer Allahbadia is scheduled to appear before the Maharashtra Cyber Cell on February 24, as per news agency ANI.

Summoning of Other Public Figures:

The controversy has widened, dragging more individuals into legal scrutiny. Actor Rakhi Sawant has been summoned by the Maharashtra Cyber Cell to record her statement on February 27 as she had appeared in multiple episodes of India’s Got Latent.

National Commission for Women’s (NCW) Action:

The NCW issued fresh summons to Allahbadia, Raina, and others after they failed to appear for a prior hearing on February 17. As per ANI reports:

o March 6: Ranveer Allahbadia, Apoorva Makhija, Ashish Chanchalani, Tushar Poojari, and Saurabh Bothra must appear.

o March 11: Samay Raina, Jaspreet Singh, and Balraj Ghai have been summoned.

Apologies and Public Reactions:

Ranveer Allahbadia has publicly apologized twice, admitting his lack of judgment in making the controversial remarks. However, he also revealed that he has been receiving death threats and that unknown individuals have visited his mother’s clinic, pretending to be patients.

Content Removal and Future Compliance:

In response to the controversy, Samay Raina has deleted all episodes of India’s Got Latent from YouTube. He has also assured full cooperation with investigative agencies.

The Farah Khan Holi Controversy

A new controversy has erupted involving director and writer Farah Khan, who has faced backlash over her remarks about the Hindu festival Holi. A police complaint has been filed against her for calling Holi a “festival of chhapris” during an episode of her culinary show Celebrity MasterChef 2025.

Legal and Public Reactions

The term used by Farah Khan in the context of Holi celebrations has been widely condemned as derogatory and offensive. Critics argue that such remarks, made under the guise of freedom of expression, hurt religious sentiments and misuse the rights granted under Article 19 of the Indian Constitution.

Legal experts and social commentators have emphasized that celebrities and leaders must exercise caution in their public statements. The growing sentiment in Modern Bharat is that such offenses will not be taken lightly and individuals responsible will be held accountable by the law.

The case against Khan adds to the ongoing debate over the boundaries of free speech, particularly when it comes to religious and cultural sensitivities.

No One Should Be Spared for Inappropriate Language, Behavior, and Public Conduct

It is deeply concerning to see Ranveer Allahbadia, who has meticulously built an image as a popular spiritual influencer, align himself with such a program and engage in inappropriate speech. Spiritual figures are revered by millions as role models of good conduct, moral integrity, and upholders of Sanatana Dharma principles.  


Ranveer Allahbadia At a BAAR!

These controversies highlight a crucial debate on public behavior, responsible speech, and the limits of free expression. While creative content often thrives on challenging norms, it must do so within the legal and ethical boundaries of society. The ongoing legal proceedings will set a significant precedent for how such cases are addressed in India.

As the case progresses, it will be crucial to see how the legal system balances free speech, accountability, and the preservation of public decency. Regardless of their influence, no one should be above the consequences of inappropriate language, behavior, or public conduct.

Are Muslims Descendants of Lord Ram and Krishna? A Historical and Sanatan Perspective

  By   VRight Path Introduction The question of shared ancestry between Muslims and the ancient figures of Sanatan Dharma—such as Lord Shri Ram and Lord Shri Krishna —touches upon deep historical, spiritual, and genealogical currents in Indian civilization. While Islam as a religion was founded in the 7th century CE, the roots of Sanatan Dharma go back many thousands of years, based on scriptural and traditional timelines. In this article let’s explore whether Muslims may have ancestral ties to Lord Shri Ram and Shri Ram Krishna through historical conversions, and how various ancient Indian calendars— Shrishti Samvat , Saptarishi Samvat , and Kali Yuga —establish the antiquity of Sanatan Dharma far before Islam’s origin. Genealogy and Religious Identity: The Human Perspective Are Muslims Descendants of Shri Ram and Shri Krishna? Religions change over time, but genealogy (biological ancestry) often does not.

Respect Sanatan Culture: 10 Things Every Sanatani Must Know

  By   VRight Path ॐ गं गणपतये नमः In today’s fast-paced and globalized world, it's easy to unknowingly adopt words, habits, and concepts that may contradict the values of our timeless Sanatan Dharma. It’s important for every follower of this ancient tradition to understand and preserve the depth and dignity of our culture. Here are some essential points that every Sanatani should know and remember: 1. Say “Bhagwan Ram” or “Bhagwan Krishna” – Not “Lord” Ask yourself: Were Bhagwan Ram or Bhagwan Krishna ever members of England’s “House of Lords”? Then why use the title “Lord”? The English term does not carry the same spiritual reverence as the word “Bhagwan,” which signifies divinity and supreme consciousness in Sanatan Dharma. Let’s use our own respectful expressions:  Bhagwan Shri Ram ,  Bhagwan Shri  Krishna . 2. Avoid Saying “RIP” The phrase  Rest In Peace (RIP)  originates from burial customs and assumes the soul rests at one place. ...

Fire Incident at Kumbh Mela: A Year of Fire – Stay Alert

  By Aryan Rana, Founder,  VRightpath The current year 2025 adds up to the number 9, governed by Mars, which astrologically represents fire, earthquakes, and conflicts. This year may witness significant events related to these elements. Recently, a fire broke out in Sector 19 of the Kumbh Mela, near the Geeta Press stall. The incident was claimed via email by the KGF terrorist group. Fortunately, timely safety measures ensured that no casualties occurred. However, the event has sparked debates on social media, with some questioning why God, Sanatan Dharma, or saints didn’t intervene to prevent the fire, while science (fire brigade department and safety equipment) ultimately saved lives.  Read in Hindi This perspective reflects a misunderstanding of God’s blessings and His role in the world. God doesn’t directly intervene in every situation but blesses us with intelligence, wisdom, and knowledge to handle challenges effectively. Expecting miraculous intervention from God m...
