đ„ Myntra Changed Its Logo, Airbnb Faced a Branding Controversy, and Now Ranveer Allahbadia Is Under Fire for His Dark HumorâWhatâs Happening?
Ranveer Allahbadiaâs roast show got backlash, Myntra had to change its logo, and Airbnbâs branding sparked debate. Can brands and influencers be creative without offending people today?
Hi Dosto
Ranveer ke viral video ko dekha kya.
YouTuber Ranveer Allahbadia aka BeerBiceps is getting roasted himself after he made a baap re baap-level vulgar comment on the show Indiaâs Got Latent.
Matlab, "Hum jokes ke side effects samajhne aaye the par yahan toh asli effects dikh gaye!" đŹ
Kya scene bana?
đŽ The Internet Got Mad Mad!
Ranveer asked a contestant a question about their parents.
Public bola, "Bhai, yeh kya ghatiyapan hai?" Some thought it was just a joke, but Aam Janta wasnât laughing.
Neelesh Misra pointed out that such jokes donât promote humourâthey promote badtameezi! And Congress leader Supriya Shrinate straight-up called it "perverted." đ¶
Maharashtra CM Devendra Fadnavis says, "I have come to know about it. I have not seen it yet.
âïž Legal Tandoor Garam!
Joke itna bhadak gaya ki do Mumbai lawyers ne complaint file kar di!
They said this kind of language doesnât just insult women but also spreads dirty thoughts among kids.
"Sanskaar dikhne chahiye bhai, sanskaar!"
đą Brands Ko Bhi Laga Jhatka!
Ranveer isnât just a YouTuber; heâs also a big name for brands. But jab koi influencer aise blunders karta hai, brands ka naam bhi mitti mein mil sakta hai.
Audience ka trust ek second mein phusss!
Imagine youâre selling ayurvedic haldi doodh, but your brand ambassador is out there promoting chatpati chai ki gandi baatein. đ«
Toh Seekh Kya Mile?
đ Joke karne ka bhi limit hota hai!
đ Social media pe kuch bhi nahi chalta, bhai.
đ Brands ko influencer choose karne se pehle dobara sochna chahiye!
Remember the time when brands like Airbnb and Myntra faced backlash for endorsing celebs with questionable behaviour?
People donât like being associated with controversy, especially when it involves sensitive topics like respect for women and family values.
Myntraâs Logo Drama: Jab Design Pe Chhidi Jung!
Myntra, the fashion giant, thought, âChalo, letâs give our logo a makeover!â
Simple, right?
Bas yahi galti ho gayi.l Naaz Patel an activist who saw the new logo and went, âYeh toh sanskaar ke khilaaf hai!â
She claimed the design looked like a woman sitting with her legs wide open. đ±
Matlab, ekdum Kabir Singh level overreaction!
Complaint filed against Myntra
She said âYeh toh mahilao ka apmaan hai.
Myntraâs Panic Mode: Damage Control On
Myntra didnât want to turn this into a full-blown scandal. So, they changed the logoâjust like that.
But yeh koi chhoti moti baat nahi thi.
A logo redesign means rebranding across EVERYTHINGâapp, website, packaging, ads.
Public Reaction: Overreaction or Justified?
Some people supported Patelâs view, while others were like,
âBhai, ab logo bhi offend karne lage?â
It sparked a bigger conversationâshould brands give in to every complaint?
SRK bhi bolegaâKuch toh log kahenge, logo ka kaam hai kehna!
Airbnbâs LogoâMore Than Just a Symbol?
Letâs rewind to 2014. Airbnb came up with a fancy new logo, that represents people, places, love, and belonging.
Sounds deep, na?
But the internet had other plans. Logon ne bolaâyeh toh body part lag raha hai! đ
Twitter went wild, and suddenly, the logo was being compared to... letâs just say, not-so-family-friendly things.
The Meme Attack!
Instead of looking cool, Airbnbâs new design turned into a joke.
Imagine spending crores on a rebranding, only to have your logo compared to... well, things best left in biology books. đ€Š
What Could They Have Done?
Maybe Airbnb should have explained the logo better before launching it. A sneak peek, some user feedback,
Thoda audience involvement hota toh shayad yeh circus na hota.
The Lesson for Brands?
Logo change? Socho samjho!
Kahi aisa na ho ke pyaar dikhane chaho aur log PK wala dance samajh lein. đPublic opinion matters. Aaj ka zamaana Twitter pe viral hone ka hai. Ek meme aur saari mehnat pani!
Donât react in a panic. Myntra ne logo hata diya, but maybe they could have handled it with better PR? A little communication can save big bucks.
Design toh mast banao, par public ka perception bhi samjho!
Kyunki logo ka sahi hona zaroori hai, warna log âlogoâ uthane mein waqt nahi lagayenge! đ
