Controversy
What was the 'Latent' controversy?
The show found itself in the eye of the storm last year after Allahbadia asked a contestant, "Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day or join them to finish it once and for all?" This led to massive backlash on social media, leading to multiple legal complaints. He later apologized for his remarks, saying, "My comment wasn't just inappropriate, it wasn't even funny. Comedy is not my forte. I am just here to say sorry."
