B Praak's new statement: Ranveer should be forgiven
Speaking to paparazzo Viral Bhayani, the singer said in Hindi, "Baat bahut badi thi aur galat baat thi. Par mereko yeh hai ki kisi ki family ko personally hurt nahi hona chahiye. Par agar koi banda dil se uss cheez ke liye maafi maangta hai, usko pachhtava hai uss cheez ka, toh humein uss cheez ko zyada drag nahi karna chahiye aur unhe maaf kar dena chahiye. (The matter was very serious and indeed wrong. But I believe that no one’s family should be hurt. And if someone genuinely apologises for their actions and truly regrets what they did, we shouldn’t drag the issue and forgive them)."
Talking further, he urged people to create good content, "But I did express what I felt was wrong. This was my personal thought process, and we didn’t say anything bad to anyone. You can see for yourself that if we create good content, people will appreciate it. Everything is based on your words. So every person should make good content, good movies, and good songs."

Criticizing the YouTuber for his controversial remarks, Praak revealed that he had cancelled his appearance on his podcast Beer Biceps.

The controversy that erupted over Ranveer's remark about parents and sex went viral. Interacting with one of the contestants, he asked, “Would you rather watch your parents have sex for the rest of your life or join in once to make it stop?”
The clip from the show went viral across social media, garnering massive backlash. Following the controversies, multiple FIRs were filed, and summons were issued for Allahbadia, comedian Samay Raina, and co-judges on the panel of the show.
On Tuesday, the Supreme Court gave partial relief to Allahbadia and stated no further FIRs shall be lodged against the influencer. However, a bench of Justices Surya Kant and N Kotiswar Singh slammed the podcaster, “...There is something dirty in his mind which has been vomited on the YouTube show.”
