In a recent episode of Pranit More's stand-up show, a segment featuring an audience member's objectionable remarks about a woman has sparked significant outrage online. The incident, dubbed the "Rs 370 biryani" clip, showcased a male attendee recounting a date where he spent Rs 370 on biryani, only to express feelings of entitlement to intimacy afterward. The comedian's laughter during the segment further fueled criticism, as many felt the comments were inappropriate and disrespectful.
As backlash intensified, Pranit issued an apology, stating that the audience member's views do not align with his own. He acknowledged his mistake in failing to challenge the remarks, calling it a "lapse in judgment." In a surprising turn, following the public outcry, the audience member has reportedly lost his job, adding to the fallout from the event.
Just days after the incident, Pranit deactivated his Instagram account, leading many to speculate that the decision was a response to the growing criticism surrounding the content.
