Comedian's 'Rape Joke' Sparks Outrage Online

Comedian Pranit More has drawn widespread criticism following the virality of a clip from one of his recent stand-up shows. The video captured More's reaction to an audience member recounting a date where he stated he would 'recover' the cost of a meal. More's response, "Peak Gurgaon content," has been the focal point of online outrage.

Social media users vehemently condemned the remark, with many deeming it deeply problematic and indicative of normalizing rape jokes. Some criticized More for presenting a gentlemanly image on Bigg Boss while allegedly harboring a different persona off-screen. Content creator Uorfi Javed also voiced her disapproval, sharing the clip and labeling it 'disgusting.'

Although More has since deleted the video, online discourse persists, with many questioning his silence. Detractors argued that such humor is a harmful form of entertainment that disguises predatory entitlement and sexual harassment. The sentiment expressed was that a meal does not constitute consent or a transaction for physical boundaries.
