Elvish Yadav's name has been associated with multiple controversies, owing to which he has several cases registered against him. Despite these controversies, Elvish continues to be a part of the reality show, Laughter Chefs 2 and MTV Roadies XX. However, The Federation of Western India Cine Employees (FWICE) has strongly condemned Elvish's participation in Laughter Chefs 2. BN Tiwari, President of FWICE, took a firm stance against the YouTuber and wrote to the channel, urging the removal of Elvish from the cooking reality show.

Expressing strong opposition about Elvish Yadav's participation in Laughter Chefs 2, BN Tiwari, in a letter, wrote, "We strongly condemn the promotion of Mr Elvish Yadav. As you are well aware, he has made racial comments against Bigg Boss 18 contestant Chum Darang and has faced significant backlash on social media."

In the letter, the FWICE president also mentioned how several cases have been registered against Elvish, including his snake venom case, rave party case and more. He also has legal charges under the Wildfire Act in Noida for allegedly arranging snake venom at rave parties.

BN Tiwari also emphasised how Elvish is widely followed by the youth and his actions highly influence them to engage in illegal activities. The statement further read, "We strongly condemn all his acts that go against the welfare of society and the values of our country."

They further urged the channel to discontinue their association with Elvish Yadav and remove him from Laughter Chefs 2. "We strongly object to Colors Channel promoting Elvish Yadav and request you to discontinue your association with him for the betterment of society and the nation. We hope you understand the severity of the matter and our concerns. We look forward to your immediate and necessary action," the statement read.

After this demand, the channel has yet to react to the same and respond about Elvish's stint in Laughter Chefs 2. For the uninformed, the strong demand from FWICE comes after Elvish's name was embroiled in controversy several times for various reasons.

At present, his racist and derogatory remarks about Chum Darang have offended many, including The Arunachal Pradesh State Commission for Women (APSCW).

Speaking about Elvish Yadav's stint, the YouTuber is currently seen in Laughter Chefs 2 and is also a gang leader of the hit adventure show, MTV Roadies XX.
