Something unexpected is happening again around Samay Raina and fans cannot stop talking about it online. Months after India’s Got Latent disappeared from YouTube during a huge controversy, the comedian has now shared a fresh update that has completely changed the mood among viewers. A new behind-the-scenes picture from the sets has now confirmed that the shooting for India’s Got Latent Season 2 is officially underway. The update quickly went viral across Instagram and X, with fans reacting emotionally to the comeback of one of India’s most talked-about comedy shows of the last few years.
Samay Raina Confirms India’s Got Latent Season 2 Shoot
Samay Raina recently took to Instagram and casually dropped a major update that instantly grabbed attention online. While replying to fans asking about the second season of India’s Got Latent, the comedian shared a behind-the-scenes image directly from the set.
In the picture, Samay was seen holding a microphone while comedian Balraj Ghai stood behind him. What made fans even more curious was that the faces of other panel members were hidden intentionally. Many viewers quickly started guessing who might appear in the new season.
A few details fans noticed from the picture:
- Balraj Ghai was clearly visible on set
- Aashish Solanki appeared partially visible in the frame
- Other guests were hidden to maintain suspense
- The set design looked similar to the original show
Samay captioned the post in his usual funny style and confirmed that the shoot was already happening.
India’s Got Latent Comeback After Massive Controversy
The return of the show feels important because India’s Got Latent faced a very difficult phase last year. In February 2025, one episode featuring Ranveer Allahbadia, Apoorva Mukhija and Ashish Chanchlani triggered massive backlash online after controversial remarks during the show started circulating on social media.
Soon after that:
- Multiple FIRs were reportedly filed
- Online criticism increased rapidly
- Apoorva Mukhija received serious threats online
- Ranveer Allahbadia paused parts of his content work
- Samay removed all episodes from YouTube
For many fans, it looked like the show may never return again. That is why this new update is becoming such a huge talking point online now.
Samay Raina Opened Up About Mental Health And Pressure
Earlier this year, Samay returned with his stand-up special Still Alive, where he openly discussed the emotional impact of the controversy. During the performance, he spoke about stress, public trolling, pressure on his family and the difficult months after the backlash.
Many fans connected emotionally with that honesty because Samay usually keeps his personal emotions hidden behind humour. His comedy special also became the place where he officially announced India’s Got Latent Season 2 for the first time.
People online said the announcement felt emotional because the show was closely connected to internet comedy culture for many young viewers.
Alia Bhatt And Sharvari Rumours Add More Curiosity
Before Samay officially confirmed the shoot, another leaked image from the alleged set of India’s Got Latent Season 2 had already gone viral online earlier this month.
That picture reportedly showed:
- Alia Bhatt
- Sharvari
- Balraj Ghai
- Aashish Solanki
sitting together on a panel.
Neither the actresses nor the makers have officially confirmed their appearance yet. Still, social media users are already discussing possible celebrity guest episodes for the new season.
Many fans are especially excited because the show became popular partly due to its unpredictable guest lineup and raw humour style.

Why Fans Still Love Samay Raina India’s Got Latent Show
Even after the controversy, India’s Got Latent continued trending online regularly because many viewers felt the show changed digital comedy content in India. Unlike scripted reality shows, the format felt spontaneous, awkward, funny and sometimes completely chaotic.
Fans often mention that the show gave opportunities to lesser-known comedians and creators who later became viral online themselves.
Some audience reactions currently trending online include:
- “Finally the comeback we were waiting for”
- “Latent without filters is coming back”
- “Samay handled everything and still returned stronger”
- “Hope season 2 keeps the same raw vibe”
That emotional fan connection is one major reason why this comeback news is spreading so fast online.
