Raina’s popular show ‘India’s Got Latent Season 2’, which created a stir in the world of comedy with its outspoken style, is finally back with its second season. Ever since the blockbuster success of the first season, fans were eagerly waiting for its next part. Now the wait is over and the first explosive episode of the show has been released on YouTube and Netflix. Bollywood’s top actresses Alia Bhatt and Sharvari Wagh were seen as special guests in the very first episode, which made the atmosphere of the show very entertaining. Both the actresses had reached here for the promotion of their upcoming spy-action film ‘Alpha’.

"I too regretted seeing Jigra…" Laughter at Samay Raina’s punch: During the show, Samay Raina left no stone unturned in taking a dig at Alia Bhatt in her signature style. He made such a funny reference to the poor performance of Alia’s previous film ‘Jigra’ at the box office that everyone present there burst out laughing. It started when time said, "Alia ji, first of all I can’t believe that you are here in my show." Taking a dig at this, Alia replied, "Yes, I too am feeling a little regretful right now."

While hitting a four on the spot, Raina immediately said, "Ma’am, I too regretted watching ‘Jigra’." Even Alia Bhatt herself could not stop laughing at this sharp and funny comment. He responded to the situation with great sportsmanship, "At least you watched my film, thank you very much for contributing to the film collection."

Time made Alia nervous by taking Ranbir Kapoor’s name! The talk did not stop only on ‘Jigra’. Samay Raina took the matter further and said to Alia, "But to be honest, Alia ji, I am feeling very nervous sitting next to you, because I am a big fan…" Time stopped here for a second and then said laughingly, "Your husband Ranbir Kapoor’s! And of course, yours too." This timely wit forced both the judges and the audience of the show to applaud. Samay also asked Alia in a humorous tone that despite being Bollywood’s most successful star and giving back-to-back hits, why did she decide to appear in a show like ‘India’s Got Latent’? Time took a dig at this and said, "Ma’am, where is Cannes (Cannes Film Festival) and where is our latent! But see, here also the entire camera is only on you."

Alia Bhatt expressed her pain on international trolling, said thanks to Kapil Sharma, there was a big reason behind Raina’s ‘ear vs latent’ comment. Actually, some time ago, a video of Alia Bhatt from the International Cannes Film Festival went viral on social media, after which she had to face a lot of trolling. It was being claimed in the video that when Alia was posing on the red carpet, foreign photographers had lowered their cameras and started focusing on other Hollywood stars. After this clip, there was a lot of debate on the internet about Alia’s global identity. While talking about this topic in the show, Alia talked about the changing environment of the industry and comedy. He said, "No, no time, honestly I think we can all say this with complete clarity today and we are very grateful to Kapil Sharma for the wonderful platform of humor he has given us."

Let us tell you that Yash Raj Films’ mega budget spy-universe film ‘Alpha’ starring Alia Bhatt, Sharvari Wagh, Anil Kapoor and Bobby Deol is all set to release in theaters on July 3 this year.
