The Court also described Allahabadia’s language as ‘dirty’ and that he ‘vomited’ from his mind.

During the hearing, the bench expressed strong disapproval of Allahabadia’s remarks, stating:
“Just because someone becomes popular, does it mean they can say anything? Is there anyone on earth who will like this language? There is something very dirty in his mind which has been vomited.”
