Supreme Court Quashes FIRs Against Samay Raina and Comedians
A famous comedian named Samay Raina has a funny show called India's Got Latent.
Some jokes on the show hurt people with disabilities, so police cases called FIRs were filed against him and four other comedians.
A very important court in India, called the Supreme Court, decided to cancel all those cases.
Earlier, the court had told the comedians to pay a fine and do charity shows to help people with disabilities.
The comedians organised shows to help, and the judge said their hard work was good.
After the court's decision, an old funny video from the show became popular again.
In the video, a magician named Sunny Magicc does a magic trick, and Samay jokes, 'Please take my FIR away.'
People think the joke came true later, like magic, because the FIRs were really cancelled.
The magician shared the video again and said 'the Universe heard' Samay's wish.
The Supreme Court dismissed all FIRs filed against Samay Raina and four other comedians over remarks made on India's Got Latent.
The FIRs concerned controversial and insensitive remarks about persons with disabilities made on the stand-up comedy show.
A viral clip from season 2 resurfaced showing Samay jokingly telling magician Jaspreet Singh (Sunny Magicc), 'Bhai, merepe se FIR hata de yaar...'
The court had earlier fined the comedians Rs 3 lakh and directed them to organise at least two fundraising events every month for persons with disabilities.
The court praised the comedians' genuine efforts in organising shows for persons with disabilities; Samay Raina has not yet publicly reacted.
