Karan Aujla Recalls Legal Action Over 'MF Gabhru' Song on India's Got LatentPreviousNext

Singer-rapper Karan Aujla humorously recalled facing legal action over his 2025 song 'MF Gabhru' during India's Got Latent Season 2. The Punjab State Women's Commission had taken suo motu cognisance of the song for objectionable language towards women, prompting investigations and calls for apologies. Aujla joked about fleeing to Dubai following the controversy, which elicited laughter from the show's panel and audience. Both Aujla and rapper Honey Singh later apologized for their lyrics.
