Supreme Court says Samay Raina 'took court for a ride', pulls up Ranveer Allahbadia over non-compliance
- On Tuesday, the Supreme Court reduced the penalty imposed on comedian Samay Raina to Rs 3 lakh after his counsel filed a late affidavit, down from an initial Rs 10 lakh fine.
- These proceedings arise from FIRs concerning offensive remarks made on the show India's Got Latent, a controversy that sparked public uproar in January 2025 and involves YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia.
- Chief Justice Gavai admonished Raina for having "taken the court for a ride" and "brazenly violated" orders, while Advocate Aparajita Singh characterized his actions as "just ego and arrogance."
- Justice Surya Kant Bagchi remarked that "more you speak more subterfuge comes out," warning that failure to comply with the Rs 3 lakh penalty could escalate the fine to 30 lakh.
- Emphasizing the fundamental right to dignity, the Chief Justice warned that Raina must "respect sentiments of the society members" or face consequences, underscoring the court's focus on accountability.
