Pranit More Appears Masked Before NCW Over Rs 370 Biryani Row; Panel Rejects Apology

Summary

Comedian Pranit More has appeared before the National Commission for Women over a controversy surrounding a remark about spending Rs 370 on chicken biryani and expecting a return on his investment. The commission rejected the apologies offered during the hearing, expressing deep concern over content that normalises violence or serious crimes under the guise of entertainment. The incident began during a crowd work segment where an audience member made a joke that was widely shared on social media and sparked a heated debate over its perceived misogynistic undertones.
