He mentioned that the honorable court has granted the bail, however, Elvish will be released following a few legal proceedings.

The snake venom case

A tip-off led to the busting of a rave party on November 3rd, 2023. Maneka Gandhi's People For Animals organization conducted a sting operation to put an end to the party. There were suspicions about Elvish Yadav's involvement in supplying snake venom, which were raised after he posted videos with a snake, but the winner of Bigg Boss OTT 2 denied any connection to the case. He explained that the snake was used for a shoot and revealed that singer Fazilpuria had arranged the snakes.

At the wild rave party, authorities confiscated nine snakes and their venom. The samples obtained from the event indicated that the snake venom was being used for intoxication purposes. Yadav and five others were implicated in the case, with five of them being apprehended. Meanwhile, the YouTuber was subjected to a lengthy interrogation session.

Elvish made videos on Instagram and stated that he was innocent and had nothing to do with the case. He also stated that he would cooperate with the police officials in the legal proceedings of the case.

Elvish Yadav's parents' reaction to his arrest

Elvish Yadav's parents gave media interviews and mentioned that their son is innocent and is being framed in the case. They showed complete trust in him. A few videos of his parents getting emotional went viral on the internet which led to many celebrities coming out in his support. Bigg Boss 14's Aly Goni tweeted about him and wrote, "After seeing Elvish’s mother cry in a video my heart.. I hope she meets her son ASAP and I hope he stays out of all these controversies in the future."

Abhishek Kumar, Bigg Boss 17's first runner-up also tweeted in Yadav's favor and wrote, "During this challenging time, I support #ElvishYadav and remain confident in the judicial system to ensure justice prevails. Elvish ke family ko iss difficult time me dil se saath deta hu Aaj unhe rota dekh mere bhi aansu nikl aaye. Jai shree ram sab acha ho."
