Comedian Samay Raina is earning praise online after a recent episode of India's Got Latent featured him calling out a misogynistic remark linked to the viral Rs 370 biryani controversy that sparked widespread outrage earlier this month.

Rs 370 biryani row

The incident traces back to a stand-up show by comedian Pranit More, where an audience member narrated a story about spending Rs 370 on a chicken biryani during a date and then suggested that he was entitled to something in return from the woman. The comment was widely criticised for appearing to glorify coercive and non-consensual behaviour, triggering backlash across social media and prompting intervention from the National Commission for Women (NCW).
