Samay Raina Makes First Appearance After Hinting At India's Got Latent Return, Has THIS To Say
Samay Raina's candid moment with paparazzi has gone viral across social media.
Samay Raina was recently embroiled in controversy after Ranveer Allahbadia's comment on his show, India's Got Latent, sparked massive backlash. Samay was not only in legal trouble but also had to shut down his YouTube show. As the legal row is slowly dying down, the comedian hinted that the show might return after some time. Samay has now made his first public appearance after teasing the show's return, and he looked happy and calm.
Samay Raina was seen in a blue tee with checkered pants, flaunting a comfy look for the night. As paparazzi surrounded the comedian for a photo, he asked them to join him instead of taking his pictures. The comedian then posed for the shutterbugs and said, 'Main na awkward ho jaata hoon thoda, yaar." Have a look here:
While Samay Raina is still navigating ongoing legal proceedings, he is slowly returning to the comedy stage and the public eye. In a recent promotional video for Bold Care — a sexual wellness brand co-owned by actor Ranveer Singh — he was asked by podcaster Raj Shamani if India's Got Latent would ever return.
With his trademark wit, Samay replied, 'Woh toh ab Samay hee bata payega. Main nahi, time. Time is the best healer," playing on the double meaning of his name and the Hindi word for 'time." He added with a smile, 'Good things take time." Whether it was a subtle tease or a serious hint, fans are already talking about the possibility of a comeback.
He also recently announced a new international tour that will take him across Europe, the UK, Australia, and New Zealand. Taking to Instagram recently, Samay shared the tour dates—starting in Cologne on June 5 and ending in Sydney on July 20.
In one of his Instagram stories, Samay hinted that his new set will touch on the India's Got Latent controversy, suggesting he's ready to turn the tough chapter into comedy. 'The most testing time of my life makes for the best comedy. See you on the tour," he wrote. The announcement sparked huge excitement, so much so that his ticketing website briefly crashed due to the surge in traffic.

Housefull 5 OTT release: When and where to watch Akshay Kumar, Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh's ₹300-crore comedy
Housefull 5, the polarising film that earned over ₹300 crore at the box office, is finally getting an OTT release. The Tarun Mansukhani film will be available for streaming on Prime Video from today, the platform announced on Friday. Housefull 5 OTT release: The comedy murder mystery is releasing on streaming this Friday. Housefull 5 OTT release Prime Video uploaded a short video on its Instagram handle featuring the cast of the film and asking the audience to watch the film on the OTT platform. "A housefull of people have something to say," read the caption. Housefull 5 is a comedy that starred Akshay Kumar, along with a large ensemble cast that included Abhishek Bachchan, Riteish Deshmukh, Sanjay Dutt, Fardeen Khan, Jacqueline Fernandez, Shreyas Talpade, Jackie Shroff, Sonam Bajwa, Chitrangad Singh, Nargis Fakhri, Nana Patekar, and Soundarya Sharma. Housefull 5 box office and reception The film, produced under Sajid Nadiadwala's production banner Nadiadwala Grandson Entertainment, was released in theatres worldwide on June 6 and went on to earn over ₹300 crore at its global box office and crossed the mark of ₹200 crore with its domestic box office collection. A murder mystery comedy, Housefull 5, was released in two parts: Housefull 5 A and Housefull 5 B. Both films had the same beginning but different endings, with a different killer revealed in each climax. The makers said they had wanted to come up with such a concept for many years during the film's promotions. However, the film was criticised for its depiction of the female characters and some rather unsavoury jokes. Many viewers complained that, for a family film, Housefull 5 had a definitive male gaze and overtly sexualised the women in the film.
