Rautela, who has been actively promoting her new film, Daaku Maharaaj, was scheduled to appear on Allahbadia’s widely-followed podcast. However, sources suggest that her decision to cancel the appearance stems from the controversy surrounding Allahbadia’s remarks on comedian Samay Raina’s show, India’s Got Latent.

Some netizens have labeled her as the “first non-nepo lead to cancel a Ranveer show”, implying that previous guests may have continued appearing on the podcast due to industry connections. Others speculate that more public figures may follow suit, further distancing themselves from Allahbadia in light of the controversy. Fans of BeerBiceps argue that the cancellation is an overreaction, while critics see it as a necessary pushback against problematic statements in the influencer space.
The BeerBiceps podcast, known for hosting high-profile celebrities, entrepreneurs, and influencers, now faces mounting scrutiny as industry figures begin to reassess their associations with its host.
