What is the story about?
Samay Raina has made a triumphant return! The highly anticipated India’s Got Latent 2 Episode 1 has finally been released online. As the comedian promised,
it debuted on both YouTube and Netflix simultaneously, causing quite a stir on the internet. The first episode featured Alpha stars Alia Bhatt and Sharvari, among others. This one-hour episode was packed with amusing jokes, playful banter, and more. Alia took it all in stride, even as Samay made some pointed jokes about her and her less successful film Jigra. Sharvari also faced some light-hearted teasing during the show.
Alia Bhatt Playfully Teased By Samay Raina
As he introduced Alia, Samay referred to her IGL appearance as the "lowest point of her career." Within moments, the actress responded, "I'm regretting." Samay, known for his sharp wit, replied, "Maina bhi kiya tha Jigra dekhke.
Alia took the jest in good humor and said, "At least tumne dekhi picture. Thank you for contributing to my film."
But that wasn't the end. Samay continued, "I am so nervous about sitting next to you. I'm such a big fan... of your husband." He added, "Aap itni badi actress ho," and acknowledged her numerous awards and accomplishments. Just when it seemed he was being sincere, he humorously asked, "Why are you here?"
In a playful jab at Alia for her appearance at the Cannes Film Festival, he remarked, "Yaha camera aap pe hai."
On a lighter note, he expressed that it was a privilege to have Alia on the show.
Remember Alia’s memorable moment on Koffee With Karan when she mistakenly named Prithviraj Chavan as the President of India instead of the correct answer, Pranab Mukherjee, during a rapid-fire segment and faced significant online backlash? Samay brought that up and asked if she knew who the current president was. Alia answered correctly and mentioned that she received her National Award from Droupadi Murmu. Samay appeared quite impressed.
When it came to Sharvari, she was asked about her identity and purpose for being there. Samay humorously noted that he had just been informed Alia had a "plus one."
In addition to roasting the co-panellists, the show also showcased some entertaining performances. Both Alia and Sharvari enjoyed themselves as they engaged with the participants and evaluated their acts.
The second season of the well-known show marks Raina’s return following the India’s Got Latent controversy last year, which led to legal challenges for the comedian.
