The hearing began with Mr Allahbadia's lawyer, Abhinav Chandrachud, the son of the previous Chief Justice, DY Chandrachud, in the court's crosshairs over his position on the comments.
The Supreme Court on Tuesday severely criticised YouTube celebrity Ranveer Allahbadia for making vulgar remarks on Samay Raina's India's Got Latent show, saying such behaviour should be condemned. The apex court also commented that the podcaster had something "very dirty" in his mind which he ‘vomited’ on the show.
Justice Kant said the remarks reflected "the perverted mind".
"The words you have chosen, parents will be ashamed, sisters will be ashamed. The entire society will feel ashamed. The perverted mind. The perversion you and your henchmen have exhibited! We have a judicial system, bound by the rule of law. If there are threats (against Allahbadia), the law will take course," he was quoted as saying by Live Law.
"Such behaviour has to be condemned. Just because you are popular, you cannot take society for granted. Is there anyone on earth who would like this language? There is something very dirty in his mind which has been vomited. Why should we protect him," the court said, according to Bar and Bench.
