Following the recent controversy surrounding his appearance on Samay Raina's India's Got Latent, Ashish Chanchlani is making a strong return. He has officially announced his upcoming project, 'Ekaki,' marking the beginning of his comeback journey.
Instagram Announcement
On Wednesday, Ashish announced his upcoming project on Instagram, marking his first official update since the recent controversy. He revealed the news by posting a series of promotional posters. He captions the post, “We wholeheartedly invite you for the chilliest trip of the year. Bas yaad rakhna… EKAKI mein reh kar bhi... aap kabhi akele nahi rahenge.
About 'Ekaki'
A poster for 'Ekaki' shows Ashish clutching a lantern amid darkness, encircled by unsettling, ghostly hands, suggesting a thrilling and spooky storyline. The cast also includes Akash Dodeja, Harshh Rane, Sidhant Sarfare, Rohit Sadhwani, Shashank Shekhar, and Grishim Nawanii.
Genre and Ashish’s Multifaceted Role
The show combines elements of horror and comedy. Chanchlani is wearing many hats for this project—not only acting but also writing, directing, and producing it through his own production house. The series will be released on the ACV Studios YouTube channel.
The Controversy on India's Got Talent
Ashish became involved in a controversy following his appearance on Samay Raina's India's Got Latent. During the show, Ranveer Allahbadia posed a provocative question to a contestant: "Would you rather watch your parents have sex every day for the rest of your life or join in once to make it stop forever?" While the panel and audience responded with laughter, the comment sparked outrage among some politicians and social media users. This backlash led to multiple FIRs being filed against Ranveer, Samay, Ashish Chanchlani—who was also a panelist—and Apoorva Mukhija. In February, Ashish cooperated with authorities by appearing before Assam Police to record his statement. The following month, he, along with Ranveer and Apoorva, appeared before the National Commission for Women as part of the ongoing investigation into the controversy.
Emotional Instagram message from Ashish
In March, Ashish took to Instagram to share a heartfelt video message, asking his fans to keep him and his family in their prayers. Becoming emotional during the message, he said, "Hello doston, kaise ho aap log? I know, aapke messages padhe maine, chal raha hai. Maine socha story pe aapse baat karlun lekin ab samajh nahi aa raha kya kahun. Lad lenge situation se, dekhe hain aise tough times, isse bhi kuch naya seekh lenge."
