What Triggered the Controversy?
The issue began during a live performance where an audience member, identified as Himanshu Jangra, made a remark involving a ₹370 chicken biryani date experience. He claimed that after spending money on the meal, he felt entitled to a “return” from the woman he went out with.

He admitted that he should have intervened during the moment instead of allowing the conversation to continue and acknowledged it as a lapse in judgment.
Rashami Desai Reacts Strongly
