India’s Got Latent Drops Episode 2 With Veteran Panel and a Disputed ₹25 Lakh Claim

The dual NetflixYouTube release tests whether Samay Raina can reclaim the show’s edgy 'no filter' identity while facing continued legal scrutiny.

Overview

  • Episode 2 of India’s Got Latent was released as a dual drop on Netflix and YouTube on July 3–4 and features a panel of veteran comedians assembled by Samay Raina.
  • Samay announced the panel in an Instagram post and called Kiku Sharda, Chandan Prabhakar and Haarsh Limbachiyaa the ‘comedy heroes’ who joined him on the episode alongside Balraj Singh Ghai.
  • The episode produced viral moments, including Uttar Pradesh constable Kapil Dinkar winning the episode with a perfect score for his musical act.
  • Panelists repeatedly roasted Raina on air about the 2025 legal fallout, with Haarsh Limbachiyaa mocking Raina’s court appearances and interrupting a mimicry of Amitabh Bachchan over a past joke.
  • Veteran comic Sunil Pal told paparazzi he had rejected a ₹25 lakh offer to appear on the show and said he would not use abusive language, a claim Raina called 'fake news' on Instagram, leaving the dispute unresolved and the season’s tone under public scrutiny.
