Ranveer opens on fake friends after India's Got Latent controversy

Ranveer Allahbadia

found himself in the midst of controversy after his comment on

Samay Raina

’s show ‘India’s Got Latent’. The Youtuber had asked a contestant on the show, ‘Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once to make it stop forever?’ Ranveer has now got relief from the court though his statement was condemned and called ‘vulgar’. He is now back and called it his re-birth.
His latest podcast after the controversy was with Buddhist monk Palga Rinpoche. During this episode he opened up on his experience with people around him during this controversy. He spoke about some people who turned out to be

fake friends

and then those who genuinely supported him. Ranveer said, “Aksar jab aisi cheezein hoti hain zindagi main toh logo ke asli characters dikh jaate hain aur aksar log kahenge, ‘Haan, unn rishtedaaro ka character dikh gaya jo log fake friends the unka character dikh gaya.’ Par iske saath saath bohot logo ke acche characters bhi dikh jaate hain."
He added, “Jo actual kareebi ke dost hain voh saare mere liye the. They were all present. Bohot saare mentors aaye. Kuch kuch aise log hain jinse main kabhi zindagi main mila bhi nahi hoon, baat bhi nahi hui hai. Unn logo ne saamne se call karke madad kari. I’m just treating this phase as an opportunity to grow."
Ranveer further said, “Ab tak ki reflection hai. Kuch log yeh bhi keh rahe hain ki ek saal, do saal break lelo content se aur reflect karo kyuki aapke saath itna bura hua toh shayad ek long-term series of mistakes thi aapki. But vahi main maanta hoon ki yaha tak main action aur mehnat se pohocha hoon. Agar is daldal se nikalna bhi hai toh voh bhi actions and mehnat se hoga, I think. Aur 1000 log 1000 alag tarah ki advice de rahe hain.”
