Mika Singh has stepped forward to urge the public to forgive Ranveer Allahbadia and Samay Raina in light of the controversy surrounding India’s Got Latent. In a recent interview, the singer shared his perspective, emphasizing that while the two YouTubers are good-hearted individuals, they struggled to handle the success that came their way. According to Mika, the controversy could have been easily avoided had Ranveer not accepted Samay’s invitation to be part of the show.
“I have no personal issues with Samay Raina; he is a sweet guy. A lot of people have told me he is my huge fan and a great musician too. Ranveer is also very nice. He is a gracious and poised human being, but his biggest mistake was that he shouldn’t have gone on the show. Their shows are very different. Ranveer’s show is very decent and respectful. Samay’s show has a different audience. If he had not gone there, this issue wouldn’t have happened,” Mika said.
He also pointed out that this was not the first time inappropriate comments had been made on India’s Got Latent. Mika reminded the audience that such remarks have been a recurring issue on Samay’s platform and highlighted how making offensive statements in a country like India can lead to widespread outrage.
“More vulgar things have been spoken about on Samay’s show, and if you say cheap things like this in a country like India, it will be hurtful. Just because Samay has succeeded, a lot of people want to be like him, but that’s wrong. Both Samay and Ranveer are successful, but they should also set the right example. You need to control the youth when you have such a huge influence,” he continued.
Mika Singh made it clear that he holds no personal resentment against either of them and strongly opposed the idea of dragging their families into the matter. He suggested that instead of escalating the issue further, an appropriate course of action would be to impose a temporary ban on the individuals involved. According to Mika, this would serve as a lesson to other influencers, making them more mindful of their words and responsibilities.
“I don’t have anything against them, and their families should not be dragged into this. Ban the artiste for some time. With this, lots of other influencers have also learned a lesson that they cannot be talking rubbish. They are kids who became successful, so I urge people to forgive them. Both are well-educated and well-spoken, just that they couldn’t manage the success,” he concluded.
