It has been quite some time since India's Got Talent controversy has been in the headlines because of Ranveer Allahbadia's not-so-cool question to a contestant on Samay Raina's show. His question not only invited trolling for him but also dragged everyone into a legal battle. Popular YouTuber Ashish Chanchlani, who was also one of the panelists in that episode, faced legal charges as well. Now, after days of silence, Ashish has reacted to the ongoing fiasco.
