What was the Veer Pahadia controversy?

The dispute between actor Veer Pahadia and comedian Praneet More dates back to February 2025, which took place after a stand-up show of Praneet in Solapur, Maharashtra. After the performance, a group of people allegedly attacked Praneeth, claiming that they were Veer Pahadia fans who were upset with the jokes made about the actor during the show.

According to a statement from Praneeth’s team, 10 to 12 people initially approached him on the pretext of taking selfies. When the mob dispersed, they allegedly punched and kicked him, injuring him.

The attackers reportedly warned him, saying, “Next time, don’t try to joke about Veer Pahadia.” Based on the complaint of the owner of the restaurant where the incident took place, a case was registered against the accused in Solapur.
