Comedian Pranit More has issued a public apology following the viral "Rs 370 Ki Biryani" controversy that sparked widespread outrage and intense debate across social media platforms. The controversy erupted after a dating-related anecdote shared during one of More's shows went viral online. The remark, which linked a Rs 370 biryani bill to expectations "in return," quickly drew criticism from many users who described the comments as misogynistic, insensitive and reflective of a transactional mindset toward relationships. Facing mounting backlash, More released a statement acknowledging what he called a serious lapse in judgment. In his apology, More said he "got carried away" during the interaction and accepted that criticism directed at him was justified. Despite the apology, reactions online remain sharply divided. While some users believe the comedian deserves an opportunity to learn from the incident and move forward, others argue that the apology does not adequately address the concerns raised by the viral clip.
