She wrote, “Pranit, stop reading a telepromt!! You didn’t get carried away or anything, that’s who you really are, the way you are rolling on the stage laughing like that is the best thing you have ever heard, shameful!! This is R@pe culture, and your mind and most minds in our country is conditioned to believe this is okay but it’s not. Your sorry means nothing!” She added, “The disgust that you are is pretty clear and in the open. Not just you and that guy but every human that was in the room was a problem. Comedy is funny when r@pe is not normalised. Don’t sell anything as comedy and expect people to react well to it. A county where 4 r@pes are reported every hour, this is not humour!”What did Himanshu say on the show?During the show, Himanshu said that he went on a date with a woman where he paid ₹370 for a plate of chicken biryani, and therefore deserved a ‘return’ on his investment.
