Tanmay Bhat row: This isn't the first time the comedian has upset a celebrity!

From Narendra Modi to Salman Khan, Tanmay Bhat has made fun of almost everyone who's famous... or let's say is known more than him!

Tanmay Bhat faced the ire of many celebrities after his disrespectful and humiliating video that poked fun at popular icons like Lata Mangeshkar and Sachin Tendulkar. Actors like Riteish Deshmukh, Anupam Kher lambasted Tanmay for his irresponsible humour but this isn't the first time the comedian has taken jibes or insulted a celebrity. 

Tanmay who's a part of the AIB (All India Bakchod) is known to pass crude remarks about people and think it's all right in the name of humour. But most times, his jokes have backfired on him. Asking Lata Mangeshkar to die because she's old is incorrigible and has got him a lot of brickbats on social media. But this isn't the first time for Tanmay. 

Previously, Tanmay and gang had upset YRF head honcho Aditya Chopra who refused to give them permission to make a short film (in true blue AIB style). So what did AIB do? They made a spoof video for YRF, poking fun at them and calling them an organisation with no sense of humour. 

Not just that, last year the AIB Roast had called in for a lot of trouble for the entire AIB team, including Tanmay. Passing snide remarks at Salman Khan's sister Arpita Khan's weight and her skin colour angered Salman who reportedly blasted the AIB guys and got the footage removed from the final cut. Also, there were several irresponsible jokes cracked at Narendra Modi, Sridevi, Boney Kapoor and others (in Arjun's presence, imagine!) which was later deleted from the version that went online. 

So for everyone who's shocked at Tanmay's blatantly irresponsible remarks which he's trying to pass as humour, we aren't surprised at all! India does have its sense of humour. But everything's at the right place. Insulting elderly people and derogating popular public figures won't get you anywhere, Tanmay. Unless it's just another cheap publicity stunt to be back in news.
