Samay Raina Responds to Claims of Shoot Halt Over Joke on Mukesh Chhabra's Girlfriend
During a recent episode of India's Got Latent Season 2, comedian Samay Raina made a joke about casting director Mukesh Chhabra's girlfriend, which was well received by the panel and audience. An unverified social media claim alleged that Chhabra was upset, causing a 15-minute shoot halt and requiring Bhuvan Bam to intervene. Raina responded humorously to these claims on Instagram, denying any serious disruption. The episode also featured jokes targeting other guests, including Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
